I stopped watching after I heard the n word being spewed. Love Jill but that poem could easily have used the word "brother" rather than the vile n word.
Now 43. I discoverd Ms. Jill Scott when I was 19-20 or so. I listened to her debut album front to back and back again. Her music, poetry and artistry is simply beautiful. To this day, she's one of the most beautiful souls I've discovered.
This really made me cry because I felt like I've been struggling with that throughout my life, just trying to be something for somebody else and I finally got to the place where I can be something for me! And do something for me because that's what I like !I love this poem I really do
WOW! This is my first time ever seeing this or even hearing this performance. Literally crying (not tears of sadness) I felt each and every word God bless Ms.Scott. This is why I write to leave an impact on others and contribute to the transformation that is needed in the world.
I always tell men that if you are having casual sex with a woman she is doing it because she is broken. There was something or someone in her past that broke her heart so bad to the point that she accepts having casual sex because either she has number herself to the point that she has blocked getting emotional or she will accept any comfort from a man because she is lonely. The majority of women like this don't have a strong male role model that reinforces her being worthy of love. I know alot of men don't care and sleep with a woman because she is easy but would they want their daughter or sister, or mother being treated this way.
@Young Legend Dear sister, i just wrote a poem about women's worth and strength and beauty and purity and all there is to them, and it happened that i needed to find a voice of a broken woman in me so i can perform it. And i happen to like going through the comment section to see how people receive this content, i came across yours and that is exactly my conversations to my friends. And always call me gay for airing out how i feel about the mistreatment of somebody else's daughter. I love you and thank you very much for this. kOMAPE SEMENYA FROM SOUTH AFRICA.
@@komapegamaliel3250 Actually there's a big difference between being sexually LIBERATED, and being sexually EXPLOITED. Don't confuse the two, as a lot of women tend to do so. If a grown woman consents to casual sex, that means she made a conscious adult decision to partake or submit herself to the act. That doesn't mean she was mistreated just because there was no emotional attachment on the opposite end. Sex is apart of life. You're either with it or you're not. Either way it's an ADULT decision.
Women who submit to casual sex, make the conscious decision to consent to doing so. Just because a guy doesn't want to fall in love with them doesn't mean she was deprived or mistreated. In other words, just because there's no emotional attachment on the opposite end, doesn't mean she was mistreated. Especially when she willingly participated. Men don't have any control over their daughters, sisters, or mothers bodies once they are GROWN. So if they choose to partake in such acts, they know that THEY are the ones making the conscious adult decision to do so. Don't claim victim mentality when you're not as desired as you think you are.
