"Incident" by Countee Cullen

Today’s episode of @vincentpowell’s “Black is Eternal” is from the most innocent of perspectives. Play it til the very end. God Bless The Child that’s got his own.

We’re still celebrating Black History Month! Every day, we’re highlighting literary pieces written by iconic Black writers.

#BlackIsEternal is proudly sponsored by @historygroomingco.

Today’s piece: “Incident” (1925) by Countee Cullen. Performed by @wardwiththesword.

Song: “God Bless The Child” (1956) by Billie Holiday. Performed by @shamekadwight.

We’re so glad you’re being blessed and sharing Black Is Eternal. The feedback is humbling and overwhelming.
