Disconnection in Shadows [Harvard, black president, viral, Claudine Gay, one of us]

Title: Disconnection in Shadows

In the hallowed halls where knowledge thrives,
Harvard’s history, strength survives.
But as the news breaks, a startling tale,
The ousting of a leader, leaves hearts frail.

Why isn’t this story freely shared,
Among black voices, collectively cared?
Perhaps Claudine Gay, with position she holds,
Feels detached, as if her presence unfolds.

A black president stands for our dreams,
Inspiring hope, bridging the seams.
Yet, in this tragedy, silence bears,
A disconnect whispers, ignites our fears.

Harvard, beacon of progressive light,
Why does darkness hide within your sight?
Black folks yearn to unite, to belong,
Yet, this omission feels undeniably wrong.

Claudine Gay, a name we should embrace,
A symbol of victory, strength, and grace.
But if she cannot stand with her own,
How can unity on our behalf be sown?

So, let us ponder why this silence prevails,
As black voices strive, fight, and trails.
For the answers we seek lie deep in our souls,
Harvard’s first black president, our collective goal.
