Kevin Powell, an author of 14 books, including"The Education of Kevin Powell: A Boy’s Journey into Manhood," is openly and honestly addressing kids' fears about the coronavirus pandemic in a moving letter capturing attention.
"After I hung up the phone with him, I didn't adequately give him the words that he needed. And so that's why I decided to write the letter." But I need you to know this is part of the journey. Nothing could have prepared me for the many pandemics of my life: the ugly poverty, the racism, violence everywhere, those dreadful periods of loneliness of being a highly sensitive only child, just like you are a highly sensitive only child. Kids would mock or dis me, like kids mock or dis you. Kids would say something is wrong with me, as kids have said something is wrong with you.
So I understand you, I know what you are feeling, what you are carrying, because I am you. I am here to tell you that you can call me any time, to talk, to yell, to be silent and just breathe, to cry, and I will cry with you. I am here to tell you not to become like some in this moment where hate is as necessary to them as their heartbeats. I am here to tell you to never become mean or cold-hearted or a bully, in spite of what you might see or hear all around you.
