A Beacon of Truth

Title: A Beacon of Truth

In the realm of academia, a tale unfolds,
Harvard’s president resigns, a story to be told,
Amidst the cheers from Blackburn, a resounding voice,
The departure hailed, a reason to rejoice.

For too long, dissenting ideas oppressed,
Intolerance masked as intellectual finesse,
But now a glimmer of hope, a sliver of light,
As truth prevails, banishing the blight.

Progression beckons, with each step we take,
Embracing diversity, for humanity’s sake,
The shackles that bound us, slowly undone,
As we unite, beneath a common sun.

She should have left sooner, many do declare,
A testament to the struggles we still bear,
But let us not dwell on the battles past,
Instead, march forward, strong and steadfast.

For in this moment, a victory we seize,
A reminder that change lies in our decrees,
With compassion and empathy, we shall soar,
Creating a world, worth fighting for.
