View Plans“ ”Fundamentally supremacism means doing anything to keep one's soul conceit, even if it means losing one's soul.

pride over anyone or anything.

Additional quotes by Amanda Gorman
Perhaps pain is like a name,
Made to sing just for you.
Let no one again
Have to begin, love, or end, alone.
