Written as a children’s anthem, Change Sings reminds the newest generation that they have the power to shape the word with their actions and voices. 
“When day comes, we step out of the shade of flame and unafraid.
The new dawn balloons as we free it.
For there is always light, if only we’re brave enough to see it.
If only we’re brave enough to be it.”
― Amanda Gorman, The Hill We Climb: An Inaugural Poem for the Country
