Recently I had the honor of becoming a mentor through the Ella Baker Center’s Heal The Streets Youth Fellowship. My mentee, Askari is a confident, active, and attentive young man. When the story of Trayvon Martin first got out, I immediately thought of my 19 year old mentee.

Africans in America

Comments
This poem was written by Heal the Streets Fellow Nubia in honor of Black History Month. They lock us up in cages
Behind bars. With no cards.
Our decks is empty
Still our struggles are hard. It's not fair that our opportunities are limited.
Yet the circumstances holding us back are limitless.
