She's a mature 23 year old young lady, thrown into stardom. Like she stated, "shot out of a cannon". I pray she stays focused and does not allow the media, paparazzi, red carpet appearances to trip her up.
She already has
@@SlayerofFiction No she hasn't. You can't write and publish your third book and be "tripped up". Turn your envy into purpose. 😕
It greatly depends on the people you surround yourself with, but I think her emotional intelligence will serve her well resisting all those temptations. I don't doubt she will be able to deal with it gracefully (she puts so much thought into what her role is in society). I would certainly root for her if she runs for presidency... such a thoughtful, level-headed person.
OMG she is so fabulous!!! And wow she has written 3 books this year, I just love her spirit!
She's a GLOBAL treasure!
The EARTH needs her!
I agree…Amanda is a national treasure. 💕
I could listen to Amanda Gorman, all day, every day. She is such an inspiration.
right?! i do not like poems but i can listen to her and Maya Angelou (RIP) ALL DAY LONG

It's through poems she communicates to the world 🌎 to express her thoughts and self.
I communicate through music 🎵 Songs, to express my thoughts in real time collectively...
But I can do it through everything anyway it's just my preferred medium of transmission,
I like hers ❤️
Amanda has such an extraordinary presence. Being around her, makes you want to feel more intelligent and mature. I love her.
2:28 - Wow. That dark blue dress color compliments her skin complexion beautifully. She’s such a breathtaking woman. Her stunning beauty is effortless! 🦋✨
So glad she got the opportunity to be seen and heard. We have so many people who, unfortunately, are never seen, heard, or discovered. Her mother did an excellent job raising her and exposing her to the arts and sciences at a young age. And kudos to Warren Wilson her mentor and the WriteGirl Program her mother enrolled her in. Her mother saw her potential and guided her forward. And thanks to Jill Biden for hearing her, remembering her, and asking her to do the phenomenal inauguration poem that touched us all to the core. I wrote for many years but was not afforded those opportunities so I am glad to see people moving forward. I hope to meet her one day and share some Spoken words together. I bid her Godspeed. I hope we continue to see many more Amand Gormans being discovered to make us better human beings! Brenda Stanley author of This is your year of Jubilee and Lifelines.
What a Beautiful, Intelligent Woman...
Amanda = HOPE!!!!
and.... that was an Excellent interview by Gail!!!
Amanda !! I am such a big fan just ordered the new book yesterday. I will continue to follow the journey.
@@danielsilveira3456 why do you care ?just follow your own path .
Intelligent, beautiful and inspiring!
She’s glowing- figuratively and literally!
She speaks so well and her brown skin is so beautiful
Wonderful and inspiring.
i love how she speaks and how they have her on.
I love how she herself knows she is a work progressing always. Love her
Wow, you've got it, girl, go for it all. So proud of you Amanda.
Brilliant young Lady gives us hope for the next generations 🙏
Every time I listen to this young girl..............tears of joy flow freely .......Amanda!
Amanda! What she calls “word play” really are “thoughts” and not just words played. Her words strike at “the hearts “ of many.
She uses ❤heart Values in her poems... Compassion, humility, gratitude, forgiveness, "assertiveness" (the Biden speech poem on no one will ever make us afraid ... We will have our fig tree... That stuff she said... ), Honesty... So on, she hits at the target 🎯 people's hearts.
AMANDA GORMAN IS A VERY GOOD EXAMPLE OF HOW YOU SHOULD BE YOURSELF AND GROW FROM THAT EXAMPLE, DARE TO BE DIFFERENT I LOVE THIS ABOUT HER EMBRACING YOUR UNIQUENESS!!
Brilliant young Queen.. she makes my heart ♥️ smiles!
Finally someone getting famous for actual talent and being a POC. I want to see her everywhere!
I LOVE HER SO MUCH ❤️❤️❤️
.Amenda is exceptionally gifted; She is really on fire, and she is igniting the world of words/poetry to suit the taste of our time
Amanda is a star as well as an inspiration, amazing person 👏
beautiful, intelligent, kind...such a wonderful, young woman
i wish i had her come to my school and do a speech.
*_Simply beautiful_*
She is BRILLIANT & BEAUTIFUL!!! xoxoxoxoxo
Her mom did an extraordinary job raising her.She is so humble.
Really excellent interview.. You can count on Gayle to respectfully ask some really poignant questions. Always enjoy hearing Amanda Gorman
She has my vote for president. Thank you for giving us a language that connects souls.
And you shouldn't be allowed to vote. 😆😆 Let's go, Brandon ...
I liked her inaugural poem. I think Amanda Gorman becoming popular in the U.S. is a cool thing. She's a young African woman and was our first African and youngest ever in U.S. history!
She’s amazing!
Gifted and Brilliant young confident young black woman
I love when people who can only recite “Roses are Red” pretend to like poetry 🙄
You gave a laugh, and that is the Only Potery I could do.
Go Amanda
This fabulous lady has Jill Biden, Oprah Winfrey and Michelle Obama in her contacts list!
Such a gifted n blessed young lady an great example of a leader not a follower🙏❤🙏
She is an older soul indeed.Very special person.
she is such intelligent, wise, mature young lady.
Amazed and speechless...!!! That's how I was left when I first heard Amanda Gorman, the youngest American poet to recite a Presidential inaugural poem for President, Mr. Biden. In fact, being a Jordanian veteran bilingual English- Arabic Translation Specialist, I couldn't help but express my true admiration and appreciation of Miss Gorman's wealth of strong vocab. My admiration was motivated by my own love of poetry, & being attracted to special poets. Having heard those golden words she uttered, truly I felt am "more American" than Americans themselves; with such words as "pride, might, power, & the like. Long live Amanda Gorman.

I Wonder which of the 12 Tribes she is from?
Very talented. ♥️📯🤩😍🤩📯🤩♥️📯🤩♥️🤩
A true national treasure!
Black Awesomeness at it's best!
She should not do politics too dirty
... I'll have it cleansed out 🧼 by the time she gets in there. It won't be the same.
I love to listen to her and see what she's wearing
❤️
Wow
God will continue to bless and protect Amanda Gorman 🙏🙏❤️❤️
💙💙👑👑💙💙🌹🌹
Affirmative action at its best
Miss Gorman, EVERYTHING you have written -- was and will be again.
YOUR TALENT IS YOUR BEQUEST. Slavery was forced upon our ANCESTORS is NOT OUR HISTORY -- but the history of the people who perpetrated THIS CRIME.
I implore you to embrace your HISTORY that is BEFORE SLAVERY.
"The Destruction of Black Civilization - Dr. Chancellor Williams"
"Civilization or Barbarism - Chiekh Anka Diop"
Dr. Williams book was purposely written for everyone, even if, they had difficulty reading.
Diop's book was originally written in French then translated to English -- both at the highest standards of the respective language.
Relax!!! She's a poet, not a world leader.
@@tonyb.1905 Please stay on your lane and within your limited scope.
@@KSynBlaze Little Blake, Little Blaze my friend:-) Learn how to put a sentence together then worry about what lane somebody's in.:-)
@@tonyb.1905 Go teach your mother and father, first. Then be highly critical of others.
@@KSynBlaze Emotional little blaze, my basement professor, don't be so sensitive. Your so emotional, relaxxx! Stop 😢 crying with your emotional responses😂
And now Florida has band her in their schools
Lol, hillarious
Romans 1 16-25
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
ONLY JESUS SAVES!!
She is a Pisces which is ruled by the feet.
She actually believes she's a "national treasure" and made it to the top because of her writing "ability". The "hill" she climbed over was made of hundreds of writers with actual talent but check all the wrong boxes in 2023. She seems like she'd be a better actress who's pretending to be a writer.
She is a fine spoken word performer. On the page, her poetry is mediocre. Her metaphors are not unique, and her images are trite.
We agree on everything apart from the fact that you enjoy the way she performs her poems. Personally I don't , it feels overly theatrical and though theatrics can be skillful in her case they aren't. But really now we agree on the most important stuff here... this poetry is at best mediocre . Perhaps people think this is groundbreaking because they haven't read much modern poetry and have nothing to compare it to.
stop admiring single mothers and learn how to keep men around, omg!
I am the real Author of the poem . Gates n Gormon conspired to remove my linkend data Elsie Geere 5th ranked page on linkend also restricted Jan 6th just after liking my comments .
So she is a plagiarist...
