Freedom Dream Poem
My Freedom Dream
What’s my freedom dream?
Frankly, my freedom dream is to put an end to this American tradition of police lynchings.
My freedom dream is transcendence into a new godly society.
A society constructed with deviancy and verve.
A beyond human society where joy is Black and boundless.
Where we as a people find the rhythm of freedom and funk.
My freedom dream is for a liberatory education .
To continue the fight of my ancestors for a better now. Now.
Continue the legacy of Adrienne, Daisy, Earlean, Woodson, Hartman, and Baldwin
To create a space for unlimited creativity and sankofa.
A fugitive space infused with the spirit of RNB and Hip-Hop.
My freedom dream is radical joy.
A soul saving joy where Black joy is boundless.
A joy centering the Black community and our need to escape.
Something akin to Illa J’s ace of love.
