 His poems addressed challenging subjects in a civil manner. Showing that it's possible to have those difficult conversations with humility and without fear. It's a collective effort to raise a generation that would aspire to achieve their God-given purpose and Malcolm-Jamal Warner was part of that collective. Reminding us to do our little part to bring about change in our sphere of influence however little. In his poem, Asante Sana, Swahili for Thank you very much, Malcolm paid tribute to those working behind the scenes to impact the future generation whose works will rarely get a mention on TV. He said: ‘It is those who stand on the frontline, fighting for the minds of our young black and gifted. It is you who are an inspiration to me. Because you are the revolution we do not see on TV.” Rest in peace Malcolm, you will be dearly missed because “You are the revolution that we now see on TV.”  Though ‘We were born yesterday and know nothing, our days on earth are but a shadow (Job 8:9). However, the legacy we leave when we achieve our God-given purpose will live on long after we’ve departed. I will leave you with this beautiful song 'Flowers on Caskets' by Claudia Isaki. To anyone who's lost a loved one, hope you find this song consoling and helps you to keep on going. Stay blessed and takecare.
