    Every time she said “hey, black child….” My face erupted in a huge smile! She not only smart, but has great timing as well. Beautiful beautiful child, pretty baby, hope their little boy will stand out too, and with this little girl as big sis, I know he will! I’m a poet myself, and she blew me away with her reading!❤️

    2020, I think this video should be to every kid. "Hey Black Child" was always one of my favorite poems. This darling had so much charisma at such a young age.
  • Wow! That's amazing for a 3- yrs. old child because I would have completely forgot my lines.❤💚💜💙

    This made me tear up. As an educator makes me proud her family encourages her to read and expand her horizons.

    She is absolutely Adorable !!!!!! How can you put thumbs down on a beautiful child like that 😪
  • @AngelicDevil152
    I hope one day she becomes a spoken poet or a motivational speaker. The way her confidence and voice resonates throughout the entire room is absolutely amazing. Not to mention the fact that she's only three years old; she has huge potential!

    This gave me shivers! And she is on point! People LISTEN when children speak! She is beautiful!
  • Not from the US but I noticed how black children really can articulate so well at young ages in America, confident children too. Bless those little souls. This made me smile 💕

  • My daughter read very well at 4! You have to spend quality time with your children! An absolute must! So proud of these little children that are so Advanced because of the love, care, and time someone took to make this happen!
  • She didn't just sweat the words, it's evident that she understands what the poem is speaking of.
