Dark Skin Girl Poem Video

Hello, my name is Eneale Pickett and I've recently finished my first year at the University of Wisconsin - Madison. There is one thing I have always strived to do in my life, and continuously try to do so, is to inspire others. With that in mind, I've written a poem called "Dark Skin Girl" which is to speak to every dark skinned woman and girl, letting them know that they are beautiful and immensely appreciated. My hope is to create a video for this poem to further send this message, but to do that, I need the proper funds, and I ask of you all to help me achieve those funds through your donations, to make this video a reality, so that I can reach out to those women and , hopefully more see this message. Thank you

Dark Skin girl,

You are earth embedded in flesh

You are a Queen,

whose kingdom rests far beyond the sunset.

You are a fighter,

With fists held high like a trident

You evoke fear in everyone

Who claims there’s no beauty

in the night sky,

Who claims that beauty

could never exist in darkness.

You tell them that perfection

comes in one shade

and it doesn’t resemble the clouds.

It resembles the privilege

that excludes you from being

a visual aid to every princess

told that their skin is too mother earth

told that their crown is too nappy

told that if they straighten their crown

they will be more appealing to peasants.

You are a God,

Men have been so foolish

not to notice the being

that brings life into this world

is the very creator of the universe.

You are the peak to any and everything

You are a hurricane devouring anyone favoring

sunlight over moonlight

You are a mother of kings that will be robbed

of the birth place but you have to remember

You are the most vital source on this white washed planet

Dark skin girl.
