Be thoughtful of origin, heritage and culture
It is essential to becoming the person of substance

In June

Moving trains to communicate with each other
Decreasing accidents with his invention in railway telegraphy

And eventually becomes a formidable contender
For the 1972 presidential primary
Her slogan Unbought and Unbossed

In December
1849 Harriet Tubman escapes from the bowels of chattel slavery
And becomes an iconic beacon of hope
In the quest for freedom for every generation thereafter
1950 Ralph Bunche earns the Nobel Peace Prize
For his work in the Middle East through the United Nations

Not just for you and me
