    I’m so proud of you Jordan. Continue rewriting and framing our story. Never let them finish your sentences. Keep pushing and revising their narrative. You are the hope of the seed. #PS44❤

    Such great perspective that I had to reflect on myself. Since I went to an HBCU I got to blossom and be myself. But hearing you I can only imagine what your PWI experience was because we all know Americas lessons teach us it is not the curriculum that makes it rigorous but the systematic structures that try to strip us and keep us behind for just being black. This message is profound and needs to heard around the world. I will follow you Jordan all the way to the top!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

    A speech that tells the truth in an eloquent way. He imparts the necessary issues that need to address for persons of color. He explains that many of those who come from a low economic background that makes it difficult to obtain an education.

    A wonderful Voice Jordan Pierre is, in a United States - where presidential candidates show tangible amounts of racism - echoed by their base, we must rise to the occasion to dismantle that which has been prevalent since -colonization- of the U.S.
    it is an honor to put my life on the line as a - Marine - [Cpl] for those of civility - i love the civility and confrontation of the lack of civility in our culture that Jodan Pierre pointed out - which needs all of our action to bring civility to ALL of our-US-People

    Jordan, you showed not just White, but Black America, the responsibility we have as a people to tell our own story and America our entire truth. God bless you, young man, and may the Lord continue to protect you, guide you, and endow you with power from on high to complete the journey he has assigned you. I am so proud of you. You make our future as a people hopeful.
