Movement I

For Beryl and Sandra

For Mary 
 For Jamaica and St. Vincent & the Grenadines

For the land that nourishes possibility in the present

For Solomon, Kaliyah and Kaden

For future ancestors

For every student I have been blessed to be inspired by

For their spirits and their purpose

Movement I calls forth the ancestors, the landscapes, the migrations, and the stories that shape Black learners long before they appear in a classroom.
