They say that black isn’t a color just a shade on a spectrum
But if Black is made up of all colors I’d rather have it absorb me so I can feel every hue and pigmentation
Black though to me?
Is the color of my authenticity
Black is my who, what, when, where, and why
Because Black is how I identify
Black is the color...
Black is the color...
Black is the color of me
It’s my essence and dignity
It’s the Color that holds the most weight
It’s the Color that takes your breath away
When people stop and stare
In my mind?
they see Black as the color of beauty and royalty
So keep staring because
Black is the color...
Black is the color...
Black is the color of all colors
So Black is you
And Black is me
Let that soak in
While I relax in my melanin
Because...
Black is the color of excellence
Black is the color of success
Black is the color of joy
And Black is the color of originality
Black is the color...
Black is the color...
Black is the color of me
It’s my rainbow
Of peace and ingenuity
Oh?
Yes, that's right
Black is my favorite color
Black is of all colors
Black is the color...
Black is the color...
Black is the color of what I love to see
Because Black
is the color of me

Goodbye, Mr. Duvall
It is turning out to be an interesting year. I was in the middle of teaching a class when a pop-up appeared on the screen announcing the death of Mr. Robert Seldon Duvall (yes, that was his full name). I was in the middle of a discussion on the obsession we have with winning when it comes to sports (the Winter Olympics was a theme), and I felt as though things were coming full circle. We had already lost Gene Hackman last year, and along with that titan, it feels though one particular golden age has closed off to be replaced by...?
