Episode: My daughter & I perform my poem called "Free Your Afrikan Mind!"
Description: My daughter performed my poem "Free your Afrikan Mind" at American University in Washington, DC in 2025. I performed the same poem at the Kennedy Center in 2024. Hope you enjoy the merging of the performances! The poem can be found on my album "A Young Black Man's Anthem: Love, Afrika, and Revolution Revisited" and my book "From the Limbs of my Poetree." Both available wherever you get your books and albums! Let's GO! #afrika #afrikaday #africa #africaday #freeyourmind #happyafricaday
