Trouillot once said,
"We all serve as actors and narrators
That compose the truth of history"
Your 'now' is tomorrow's history,
Your decisions will echo and ripple,
Will you act a courageous scene?
And speak truth,
To cut through pools of lies?
Never let anyone silence you,
And that includes yourself

Trouillot once said,
"We all serve as actors and narrators

Your 'now' is tomorrow's history,
Your decisions will echo and ripple,
Will you act a courageous scene?
And speak truth,
To cut through pools of lies?
Never let anyone silence you,
And that includes yourself
Just a belief I have and a chance to mention a tremendous historian. Grab history by it's (insert appropriate body part here) and make your life count.
