Nikki Giovanni after the Virginia Tech Massacre:
We know we did nothing to deserve it. But neither does a child in Africa dying of AIDS. Neither do the invisible children walking the night away to avoid being captured by a rogue army. Neither does the baby elephant watching his community being devastated for ivory. Neither does the Mexican child looking for fresh water…We are Virginia Tech…We will prevail.
This is a very inspiring poem and tells us to move forward. Here is the video
Proud to be a Hokie! we will prevail!
