Vid of Harvard Graduate’s Speech on Equality Goes Viral

Donovan Livingston delivered a speech at his Harvard graduation and it went viral.

It wasn’t a normal speech – it was a poem.

The audience hushed as they listened intently. He spoke of racism in the education system, and how vital it is to offer each person an equal opportunity to learn and grow, regardless of their skin color. What made his words buzz was the way he spoke: with optimism. To him, we use the past as a lesson on how to make our future a place for everyone. Donovan for president?

“Together, we can inspire galaxies of greatness

For generations to come

No, sky is not the limit.

It is only the beginning

Lift off.”

Then ensued the standing ovation.
