I love how a rapper I won’t name that died in the 1990s said on one of his records; “…he had me feeling like Black was the thing to be and suddenly the ghetto didn’t seem so tough although we had it rough we always had enough(rap song lyrics)…”

I feel like Black is the thing to be in my 30s. Even though kids bullied me I feel really comfortable being Black and I feel proud to be Black too. Black is Beautiful!

I transferred to NJCU from Mercer. I have my AA degree from Mercer in Humanities and Social Science since May 2007. I write poems, I write memoirs, I'm a blogger and I am taking a children's lit course. I love reading memoirs. I also do book reviews from time to time. My favorite poet is Emily Dickinson.
