Chadwick Boseman Speech❤️

First, giving honor to the creator and my ancestors on whose shoulders I stand. Happy mother's day to my mom who is not here by attendance but by tomorrow, she would have seen this. Let me also acknowledge my professors who have passed on to the other side. Because of the work obligations I've had for the past few years, I missed memorials that were held here for them. Your lessons continue to guide and enlighten me to this day, I'm thankful to be back here and given this opportunity. I can't think of no better place to be right now after the Black Panther and Avengers campaigns than to return and participate in this graduation ceremony with you. It is a great privilege graduates to address you on your day, marking one of the greatest accomplishments of your life today. This is a magical place, the place where the dynamic of negative and positive seems to exist in extremes. I remember walking across this yard in what seemed like a random day, my head down, lost in my own head of issues like many of you do daily. I'm almost at the center of the yard, I raise my head and Muhammad Ali was walking towards me, time seemed to slow down as his eyes locked on mine and open wide he raised his fists, I was game to play along with him, to act as if I was a worthy opponent. What an honor to be challenged by the GOAT( Greatest Of All Time) for a brief moment.
