POV: you are in high school you have to write an essay
Behold, everybody. The single smartest American
That says enough about America.
Where is her mask? 🙄
@a cats covid is airborne and is spread by speaking, coughing, sneezing and so on. Wind can spread it from the microphone to the next speaker. TBH, she should wearing a mask.
@Lance Smith unless the next person touches the microphone I don't think it would cause a problem. They probably clean the microphone too.
@a cats yeah but she's talking into the microphone which someone will use after her.
probably in her pocket since it would be impractical while reading a poem since there isn't anyone directly in front of her and her voice needs to be clear
Time to cancel her because of the expectation that only a black person could translate her poem into Dutch. Bye bye. Contact her modeling agency if you disagree with that nonsense.
Hope this works for your essay, feel free to make any changes as you see fit. “The Hill We Climb" by Amanda Gorman is the 2021 Inauguration Poem, it is a well-written composition that talks about the problems of America and what the future holds for us and the world. Here we cover events that are affecting our nation as of right now, (Like covid-19) and events that happened and threatened our nation’s sovereignty and democracy (Like Ex-President D. Trump’s raid); but, it goes through all those problems without making us doubt or despair, because it does so in a way that makes us feel like we’ve managed to survive and overcome all the obstacles that came, and that we’re able to succeed in what is to come. There are also some lines of encouragement that show that your race, gender, or beliefs don't matter and that everyone has a chance at life and we shouldn't waste it.
Never say no to a word-salad!
How is that a poem? Or black poem ?
we are all here for a assignment
Great message Amanda! Go USA
Well, now the united states seems to be america's bruised but whole...
I find this sort of "poetry" pompous and self important. I hate the spoken word/slam poetry intonations. This is not good poetry and you all know it, you are just virtue signaling by acting like it is good. I hate our society.
This isn't a poem; it's an essay.
Hey what’s your teacher that sent you this. Mine is ms.mentry
POV: Your creative writing teacher said that watch this video because you got a quiz on this 😖🥱
A White Dutchman was forced to cease translation of her poem...because of his skin color. The BEST/WORST (depends on your point of view) racists I have ever seen or heard, are Democrats in the United States. Black Democrats are equally as racist as White Democrats. Those 2 groups of people are the MOST racist people among mankind. White Democrats vote for Democrats because they know their policies harm minorities, & Black Democrats vote for Democrats because they think they can gain enough power to harm White People. Most Democrats will go their whole lives & have not the slightest inclination that they are the epitome of RACISM. Everything mankind has been fighting against ever since the written word, exists within Democrats ideologies, & beliefs.
so you are trying to say that black democrats are racist because? do u assume someone is racist because of their political views and skin color?
1.99% watch this because they want to see it 9.99% came here because of their English Teacher
what about the other 88.02%?
Go Head Israelite Baby: That's why your set apart: she broke down the history of this country elegantly without saying how destructive but how great it is and at the same time explained love & modern integration is possible at some point supposedly as to now vs then: Hope & initiative but the truth is this: she's very talented. Go Head Israelite Baby. He that have an Ear to Hear, Let him Hear.
wait a second everyone else is also here for school?
this is a good poem but my ( ig our teachers) teacher making this an assignment is a no no😀
Fast forward to a month later, "uproar" that a white woman DARE translate her beautious poetry into Dutch. How inappropriate to have a whitey, it's like symbolizing white supremacyyy.
Love her
Is she also translating it into sign language?
Golden Globe? Good...but not enough!😐
I knew it would be bad, but this bad I did not expect
I sent myself lol. What a poised beautiful young woman! I’m proud. 💜
Good speech. Not a poem though. Does anyone agree?
POV: all these comments say something close to “POV: U have a writing Assignment about this”
I got here because I heard Amanda do it live at Joe and Kamala 's Inaugurations. Excellence all around. -Dave@Woodpile 58N 16E
my teacher tell me to do what do u felt what you will do this me I felt nothing and I will do noting bc I watching Kpop and Kpop is better than this sorry
I love this poet!
LMAOAO i like this comment section. except for the people bullying the one english teacher that commented BAHAHAH
FALSE HOPE! All those Luciferians know that i understood the agenda! This wicked world is coming to AN END! What you call good is COMING TO AN END ... PERIOD! 2Thesselonians, THE MYSTERY OF INIQUITY. POEM FOR THE ANTI CHRIST ORDER! NOT THE KINGDOM OF GOD!
why
Who's here from 9b flg Bamberg lol
Hello classmates
came for the schoolwork stayed for the schoolwork. Poem was good tho ngl
Impressive. This is American energy on its way to the Great Republic. The Shining City on the Hill. But first some healing must be done. Begin with the JFK murder. See what it was. A coup d'etat to reach an imperial state. See what has happened and make the turn.
im only here for my assignment ;-;
Lol all the comments are talking about how their english teachers sent them here I mean my english teacher sent me here too
pov: you have to write an essay on this but are distracted by the comments
It very interesting that this is a Spanish participation assignment for me
0:17 when the poem starts
POV: your teacher assigned this to you.
She speaks well, but it's not poetry. Although for "New BLM America" it's really the top of the hill
yeah it's more of a summary speech then poetry
POV: ur English teacher sent you here
POV: You're watching this for a school English assignment.

jesus. 1.6 mil like from just English assignments
The way she talks is just annoying
I came here because I wanted to, not because of my english teacher.
See if I wasn't forced to watch it by the school board against my own free will, I might actually enjoy it
POV: Looking for answers to the question your teacher asked you for your school assignment. The Guidance you are looking for: Talk about her being a girl raised by a single mother descended by slaves who wants to be president.
You should talk to Candace Owens and have your brain reformatted.
Grüße an die Deutschen Schüler die das für Englisch machen müssen
Everyone is saying they're from their English teachers I'm just here coz its a great poem
Wow! First, Serena Williams best in tennis; Simone Biles best in gymnastics; and now Amanda Gorman best in poetry! Who's next? They put a smile on every face who watch them.
So who got the answers?
i expect an apology for making a poem so good that every single teacher in American is currently shoving it down our collective throats
Not just America
I mean I do t even live in America but our teacher is doin the same lmao I'm from Ireland btw
😆lol
Cringe AF Didn't even bother with cadence, syllable count per line, or even a basic rhyme scheme Just straight prose
Perfect Amanda
someone should help me with this assignment lol
Garbage poem! Trash lady!
2:31 There he is.
I'm not even American and yet I was still sent here by my teacher.
@CJ Gaming You stop crying about the fact that your country is small and insignificant compared to others
@ya boi koi stop crying
@CJ Gaming literally just read what I said pea-brain. American English is the most used by a lot.
@ya boi koi what’s your point it says English in it so don’t even speak
Same I’m Irish
so, we all got this by our english teachers?
1:15
Shoutout to my classmates!
The libs cheated and won!
Beautiful
I was sent here by my school librarian but I'm glad I stayed
Stop looking at this comment. You have an essay to write.

@Randy Sherman i dont think that was their communism but ok
@Communismisgreat COmmunism is great, you've killed over 90 million people with your "communism"
No I don’t think I will
Dont write your essay, school is abd and is the things democrats use to KILL bABIES!
who else here for a school assignment.And dad made them watch this
You go girl!
For 심슨. 0:17 1:14 2:01 3:12
Typical oppressed racial rhetoric. She also did not say anything poetic and she stole from Maya with her 'rise" stanzas. So cliche. Most people just eat this stuff up. I had to mute her just to shut her up and read the comments in peace.
Ugh she looks so gorgeous
All y’all here for an English assignment, anyone here for an art assignment??
POV: The English teacher sent us here again
My English teacher teaches me more and black history than my history teacher (who just so happens to be a big trump supporter.) Really says something huh?
Joe 1.🇺🇸💙👫hi
Anybody know the 9 literary references used in this poem? I got until tomorrow. Asking for a friend.
good luck lmao
Men
🖤🖤🖤🖤
nobody: teachers: let's make this homework like if you agree
I feel like I traveled in time. Back. A bit more than thirty years. Back to the time communists ran my county and "actresses" recited poems exactly like this one.
@SoftNut America wasn't, the country I live in was.
Yes cause America was under communist regime in the 80's lol
My English teacher told me to follow the sheep...
🤭🤭🙌🏾she did so good‼️😍
"Democracy may be delayed but never denied". What a great poet you are!
