Poet and Trans Activist Bay Davis’ Powerful Words For Those Who “Know Grief By His First Name”

Bay’s spoken word performance opened the closing plenary of our #MakeGoodFamous Summit which announced Dwyane Wade as our Elevate Prize Catalyst Award winner and launched his new Translatable initiative. We’re honored to share this poem with you all. Thank you, Bay. ABOUT THE MAKE GOOD FAMOUS SUMMIT: The Make Good Famous Summit is an annual convening that brings forth some of the most innovative cross-sector minds to positively disrupt the impact landscape and to be a place of connection. Our goal is to spark fresh ideas by challenging conventional thinking, fostering an inclusive and loving community, sparking innovation, and inspiring people to take action to ‘do good’ in their own communities. In 2024, we asked the question: In this era of extreme divisiveness, how can we harness the power of culture to bring us together and forge community? ABOUT THE ELEVATE PRIZE FOUNDATION: Founded in 2019 by businessman and philanthropist Joseph Deitch, the Elevate Prize Foundation is a global non-profit that empowers social entrepreneurs and activists by providing them with the resources they need to amplify their impact. The Foundation's signature program is its annual Elevate Prize, which is awarded to 10 or more global leaders tackling pressing issues in innovative ways. The Elevate Prize Catalyst Award, another one of the Foundation's programs, recognizes prominent individuals for their commitment to inspiring global social action and using their influence for the good of humanity. In 2022, the Foundation launched the Elevate Prize GET LOUD Award, a monthly grant to fuel grassroots movements and organizers on the frontlines committed to collective action and building power among communities.
