Malikah Stafford
Malikah Stafford reads her powerful poem, "On Your Knees," written for the 91视频 's cabaret.
I hope that my piece opens people鈥檚 eyes to the historical, continuous injustices committed against Black people which have left us imprisoned on our knees for centuries. I hope people will feel inspired to make meaningful, advocative change and feel the urgency to contribute to the fight against oppression.
