"Everyone is beautiful, no matter what shape they are."


I’m from “Tonmtonm” and “Kalalou”
Nice beaches and hot sun all year long
Where every child dreams to go to school
I’m from where it takes a village to raise a child, where respect and caring are main priority.


I’m from “Rap Kreyol”, soccer, and kids with so much talents but nobody knows them
I’m from “mayi griye ak zaboka”
And delicious dish on the table no matter how hard life is

I’m from “Soup Joumou” on New Year day where I spend the night cooking with my grandma
I’m from flying kites on Good Friday and eating fish on Easter day

I’m from Dessalines, Christophe, and Petion, heroes and warriors of our beautiful nation
I’m from January 12, 2010 where everything that we built got destroyed and millions of people died in 5 seconds and thousands were never found


I’m from Survivors, people who never give up until they achieve their goals.
I’m from creativity and party every summer

I’m from Institution Mixte Foyer des Petits, where I learned how to be a responsible teenager
I’m From College Canado Haitien, which helped me be who I am today
I’m from Randolph High School, which is achieving Canado’s work.

I’m from the first Independent Black Nation of History
I’m From Haiti
