"We are intertwined and fighting this war that has risen, armed with the intellect and the knowledge, equipped with the package to deliver the blow by any means necessary, we are intertwined! Ready, standing right at your side. You are not alone, my melanin mocha brothers."
- Tiana M. Wilson, Melanin Mocha. November 2014.
The past few years have been incredibly difficult for Blacks in America, especially for our Black men. This poem is dedicated to each and every one of you. Check out these two videos of one of my signature pieces entitled "Melanin Mocha" as well as a few from my poet friends who speak openly about the state of Black people in America today.
Check back regularly for new pieces. <3,
