Robust powerful muscles carrying the ongoing struggle to be equal.
A rugged and coarse crown atop his head held high in defiance amongst his fellow kings.

Stout-hearted and courageous protecting his queen and daughters from the obstinate.
For his sons, setting the example to be a leader and open-minded.

He carries the excruciating burdens of his forefathers in his blood.
The will to overcome and forge ahead embedded in his bones.

The Black Man.
