American - Poet Born: March 7, 1998

With the author

I am the daughter of Black writers who are descended from Freedom Fighters who broke their chains and changed the world. They call me.

Amanda Gorman

I think that's the challenge of our generation: if we are all technology natives, how do we live with influence both online and off, and how do we make sure that both of those aren't lacking in some type of deeper human connection and substance?

Amanda Gorman

I was writing since I can remember - I just didn't know it was poetry yet, or that writing could be a career.

Amanda Gorman

The oration of poetry, I consider to be its own art form and tradition.

Amanda Gorman

One: whose shoulders do you stand on? And two: what do you stand for? These are two questions that I always begin my poetry workshops with students because at times, poetry can seem like this dead art form for old white men who just seem like they were born to be old, like, you know, Benjamin Button or something.

Amanda Gorman

Poetry and language are often at the heartbeat of movements for change.

Amanda Gorman

My mom wanted to make sure I was prepared to grow up with Black skin in America.

Amanda Gorman

Poetry has never been the language of barriers, it's always been the language of bridges.

Amanda Gorman
