Posted By: HBCU CONNECT on March 09, 2026 Check out this video from Allen University in Columbia, South Carolina! Infinite Array – “Afraid to Have Sons” | Allen University Langston Hughes Poetry Contest In this powerful and emotionally charged performance, poet Infinite Array delivers her stirring piece, “Afraid to Have Sons,” live at Allen University’s Langston Hughes Poetry Contest. Through vivid imagery and unflinching honesty, she gives voice to the fear, pain, and daily struggle many Black women in the United States carry as they navigate a world that can be hostile toward Black men and boys. Her words echo the deep love, resilience, and protective strength that define motherhood—and the generational weight of worrying for the safety and wellbeing of their sons. This performance stands as a tribute to the lived experiences of countless families and a call for empathy, awareness, and change. 🎙️ Performed by: Infinite Array 📍 Event: Celebrating Langston Hughes: Open Mic & Poetry Contest 🏛️ Hosted at: The Boeing Institute on Civility, Allen University ✨ Presented by: Allen University #InfiniteArray #SpokenWord #PoetryContest #LangstonHughesPoetryContest #AllenUniversity #HBCUArtists #BlackPoetry #BlackWomenWriters #AfraidToHaveSons #MotherhoodInAmerica #BlackSonsMatter #PoetryCommunity #PerformancePoetry #OpenMicNight #BlackVoicesMatter #Storytelling #CreativeArts #BoeingInstituteOnCivility #HBCUPride #SupportBlackArtists #PowerfulPoetry If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
