Nobodyll dare
I am the darker brother.
Say to me,
I, too, am America.
Theyll see how beautiful I am
And eat well,
"Eat in the kitchen,"
And grow strong.
Tomorrow,
And be ashamed--
I, too, sing America.
Langston Hughes
Then.
Besides,
I, Too, Sing America
Ill be at the table
When company comes.
They send me to eat in the kitchen
When company comes,
But I laugh,
