I, too, sing America Tommorow, Besides, I, too, am America. -Langston Hughes
I am the darker brother.
They send me to eat in the kitchen
When company comes,
But I laugh,
And eat well,
And grow strong.
I'll be at the table
When company comes
Nobody'll dare
Say to me,
"Eat in the kitchen,"
Then.
They'll see how beautiful I am
And be ashamed--
