Happy HERSday! Just finishing the 1st draft of The Nina Project, so I have to dedicate today to the High Empress of Music: Mme. Nina Simone. Her words are timeless, her sentiment, necessary. Watch the video when you have time-its worth it. Be love. Be loved. Beloved. Namaste... To be young, gifted and black, Oh what a lovely precious dream To be young, gifted and black, Open your heart to what I mean In the whole world you know There are billion boys and girls Who are young, gifted and black, And thats a fact! Young, gifted and black We must begin to tell our young Theres a world waiting for you This is a quest thats just begun When you feel really low Yeah, theres a great truth you should know When youre young, gifted and black Your souls intact Young, gifted and black How I long to know the truth There are times when I look back And I am haunted by my youth Oh but my joy of today Is that we can all be proud to say To be young, gifted and black Is where its at Black Artists Networks in Dialogue #tdthenandnow2015 #TheNinaProject Soulpepper Theatre Company #EmpressNina #SomethingsBareRepeating #jan29ottawa #feb16toronto #kellyleeevans #jackierichardson #Holdonholdonholdon
