From 16-year-olds experiencing their Beyoncé baptism to sisters who traveled from across the country, the Beyhive made the concert into a full experience - celebrating the opulent and the divine diva that lives in us all, and supporting those whose identities put us at risk for violence.
It was a defiant, joyful release of personal and collective trauma, giving us all the chance to feel like a chromed-out Cinderella for the night.
One of the night's most electric moments came when Beyoncé introduced her 11-year-old daughter Blue Ivy Carter. Donning an orange and blue jersey with the Roman numerals "IV," the protégé performed "My Power" and "Black Parade" alongside her mother under a Super Blue Moon, a rare celestial occurrence that won't cross the sky again for another 14 years.
