Black excellence?
What is that you say?
Black excellence is a Term used loosely.
Black excellence is The excellence of African Americans.
Like Martin Luther King, Rosa Parks, Harriet Tubman, Frederick Douglas.
But wait? How is it Black excellence?
When they mayrtred for America to change.
This is true, although it is black excellence.
These African American people did what
The whites called “Impossible” to us *******
Back then in those slavery times
You said what? “ *******”
Yes, that’s right, it’s what we were called.
The white man didn’t think of us as anything ;
But a Black, Stupid, Slave.
We had it hard.
We fought for equality, respect, and justice.
So again what is “Black Excellence,” You say?
Black excellence is the confirmation of us African Americans making achievements that the “white man” said we couldn’t do.
The “white man” you say?
Who is he?
The one who we used to call masa
While in those field picking cotton and tobaca
Not tobacco but baca because we couldn’t speak
They didn’t want us to be intelligent
They wanted us to fail so they laugh and say “ you dumb ******”
But I’m here to say that I
Will never fold
To this racism we have
This injustice we have
Because I
I am on the path of excellence
And it may be narrow
To some of you
But to me, it is already been done.
Why is that, you say?
Because god deemed it so
According to Philippians 4:13
I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me
This is what black excellence is
I was going to enter this in a contest for scholarship money but I didn’t think it was good .
