I swear that have listened to this speech at least 50 times during my junior and senior year of high school. It empowered me through all those all-nighters, burnouts and depressing moments. I owe this school for helping me go through those hard times. And here comes college application season. Fingers Crossed.
The trauma of childhood is what people are having troubling dealing with. Fathers are not owning up and the mothers are smothering; the circle continues. The trauma is so thick and so ignored by the world.
How come I never saw this, viola is out of this world, the way she feels every word in the speech, you can feel it, I'm so glad she exists in a time where I exist. We love you viola 💕
There is something amazing about watching this entire speech, hanging on to every work she says, and then she finishes, it pans out, and shes wearing sneakers.
Viola and Chimamanda have a spot in my heart. Love them so much! They are so human, smart and fun. Best traits in a person. Such a privilege for you to attend and see her there. 💕💕
I love this woman. She’s dynamite, bold, fierce, courageous, brilliant and a truthsayer! She’s inspiration. She’s light. She is consciously human. I love her.
Viola Davis did it again with her speeches😭👍🏿🙌🏿👏🏿🙏🏿 made me cry listening to her from beginning to the end😭😭👏🏿 I Thank God for blessing us with u “V”❤️🙏🏿
I hear you!!!!!! Your words have affected this one in profound ways. In fact I’ve been telling everyone but so many have missed the point. Yes I reflect on a struggle of a people who so many feel are weak but are powerful indeed. Believe you me. This one reflects on a maternal dear Mom with a eighth grade education and father whose served during a war symbolizing men of a great generation of courage. Seven kids and six with college degrees. Excellent statistics indeed. Who was the main catalyst for discipline Mom. Yes my dear mom as so many woman whose contributed too the man you see before you especially the love of my life. Today begins my efforts of my initiative too actionable planning and results. Thank you sis. Pray for my success in providing the underrepresented minorities of color opportunities and spurring this one on. Agape love ❤️
Isaiah 53:5, But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes, we are healed. For salvation, people just need to follow the way they did it in Acts? They were baptized in the water and of the spirit. Here's why! The gospel is the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. If we are to follow him, we must do the same thing. Death= repentance, Burial = baptism, and resurrection = being filled with the Holy Ghost and rising again from dead works of the flesh. That's what Acts 2:38 is. Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. We must obey the gospel, 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9, in flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that OBEY NOT THE GOSPEL of our Lord Jesus Christ... Matthew 7:21-23, Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that DOETH THE WILL OF MY FATHER which is in Heaven. St John 3:3-5, EXCEPT a man, be born of WATER AND OF THE SPIRIT, he cannot enter into the kingdom of GOD. We can't come up with our own gospel. Galatians 1:8-9, But though we or an angel from heaven preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. Don't be cursed. One way for all people. Jews, Gentiles, and Samaritans. Our salvation has to match-up with the scriptures and no scriptures on the subject can be taken away. Eternity is TOOO long to be WRONG! st, John 5:39, Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. The gospels show what Christ has done on the cross for us. The book of Acts shows us the beginning of Christ's Church and how to enter the Church, obeying Acts 2:38. The letters were written to the Church to show us how to behave now that we are born again into the Church. It's better to walk alone than to walk with a crowd going in the wrong direction. Are we supposed to follow the teachings of the apostles? Acts 2:42, They continued steadfastly in the apostle's doctrines. Ephesians 2:20, We are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief cornerstone. Jesus Christ was our perfect example back to God. He was baptized and received the Holy Ghost and we must be baptized and receive the Holy Ghost. He was holy and walked in righteousness and we must be holy and walk in righteousness. He died and rose again, and we must die to the things of this world and rise to walk in the newness of life. He prayed to the father showing us how to pray to the father. If you believe in this message, help spread it in the name of Jesus Christ. God bless you
She coulda made a good speech without focusing on women and struggles for people of color for the entire begining. Everyone has struggles. And men and women are equal yet different. I feel like even though her speech was beautiful she should have focused on humanity as a whole more than she did.
She never stops to surprise…. I 🤎 MS. DAVIS her vision you may not understand in the beginning…. But you can appreciate her enthusiasm and her ending… 🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎
