Example: I Am From PoemI am from white and black, a mother and father who were not allowed to keep me because of the skin color their union created.

I am from being given to an adoption agency in Minnesota to being chosen and raised by the Adamsons in Holland.

I am from working class parents, community college in the middle of nowhere, to living among the wealthy and meeting royalty.

I am from music and athletics and academics, all taking me across the world in my youth.

I am from motherhood and career woman, juggling many responsibilities and pressures - proud.

I am from European and American, Black and white, rich and poor.

I am from nowhere, and I am from everywhere.
