’Black is beautiful. Black is excellent. Black is love. Black is elegant.’ Listen to 7-year-old Nylah perform this beautiful piece at a Black Lives Matter protest in the UK Nylah, who was born in Uganda, spoke to the crowd, telling them she wanted to grow up to be an actor, singer, dancer, and rapper. She also read a poem speaking of black pride to the cheering crowd. Nylah, who attends The Catholic Primary and Nursery School of Saint Gregory the Great, explained: "I was inspired by a song called Black by @SantanDave that I really liked because I am Black. I was born in Uganda and I love everything about being Black. I wanted to make a poem like a remix of it so I asked my dad: 'Could we make a remix of it?' and we just made it." And she's not stopping there: "I would like to read lots of poems in front of everybody because I like it when me and my dad work together to write a poem." Josh her father added: "The response has been amazing. Nylah is very confident to talk about her blackness. She is fearless." ✊✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 Video courtesy @nowthisnews #blm #blacklivesmatter #blackisbeautiful #blackexcellence #blackislove #blackiselegant #blackpower #black #blackness #blackpower #blackculture #blackhistory #blackart #unapologeticallyblack #nylahjones 🖤 (at Cheltenham, Gloucestershire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBRZpgclTTOLxVl0WSs3ZnNbmBZcWWCIeBSd6k0/?igshid=lw91r5s8vsfe
