I am not ashamed of the color of my skin, for I did not choose it—it chose me. And in that choice, I find purpose and pride. I stand unafraid to proclaim what some lack the courage to say: I am Black. I am Proud. I am Beautiful. I am Bold, grounded in self-assurance. God was not mistaken in crafting me as I am. To those who dare call me imperfect, I laugh, for they only expose their own folly. I know who I am—I am perfectly made. And so, I boldly declare: any opinion that seeks to diminish me is meaningless, empty, and void.
