On March 14th, come out and celebrate the spirit of love with our Pittsburgh middle school scholars as they perform their original works of poetry. To give you a taste of this event, we are pleased to share a poem from the 2017 Love Out Loud.
I Love Being Me
Kennya T., 8th Grade
West End Scholar
I love being me.
I stand tall and proud,
I speak out loud to the crowd.
I am African American,
and will always be proud,
I will never change no matter what comes around,
I will never change because of the crowd.
I was born this way – nice and proud,
I love being me.
Why? Because it allows me to be free!
To hear more poems like this one, RSVP for Love Out Loud today!
