I,Too,Sing Amerima
Lanqstom Huqhes
I am the darker brother.
They send me to eat in the kitchen
When company comes,
But I laugh,
And eat well,
And growstrong.
Tomorrow,
I'll be at the bable
When company comes.
Nobody'll dare
Say to me,
"Eat in the kitchen,"
Then,
Besides,
They'll seehow beautiful I am
And be ashamed--
I,too,America.
