ONSCREEN

We picked up the pen and put down the narrative,
Letting ourselves become who we always were.
Despite the world telling us that it was imperative
That blackness in film be shown as a blur.


The power we hold was realized from within,
We saw a King like us reign onscreen.
From the invisible world of Wakanda—Miles from Brooklyn,
These colorful characters make us feel seen.
