I, too, sing America





I, too, sing America

I am the darker brother.
They send to eat in the kitchen
when company comes,
but I laugh,
and eat well,
and grow strong.

Tomorrow,
I´ll be at the table,
well company comes,
Nobody w´ll dare,
say to me
"Eat the kitchen",
then.

Besides,
they´ll see how beatiful I am,
and be ashamed-

I, too, am americam


James Langston Hughes
