This will be on the back cover of the Book
I invite you 2 get 2 know us as black people
Enter in2 our world of racism
Strive 4 the accomplishments of our leaders
Seek the knowledge of our educators
Embrace the wisdom of our elders
Understand the situation of slavery
Respect the choices of our people
Walk in the shoes of our ancestors
Follow the footsteps of the Underground Railroad
Feel the pain of our families
Cry the tears of their children
Bask in the happiness of freedom
Listen 2 words of encouragement
Read our stories of triumph
Remember our names
Tell a friend
And when you’re finished…
Make sure you don’t make the same mistakes
