my heritage is black
my heritage is rebel
my heritage is soul
my heritage is love
my heritage is flesh
my heritage is gay
my heritage is proud
of what I am no matter who may say
my heritage is drums
my heritage is flutes
my heritage is dance
my heritage is fight
for being free
for being female
for being black and gay and proud
for being here
now
alive
in the flesh
and ready
1975
