On the eve of the Obama Presidency, and the expansion of the country, Langston's noise seems appropriate:
I, Too, Sing America
I, too, sing America. 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.Tomorrow,
I'll be at the table
When company comes.
Nobody'll dare
Say to me,
"Eat in the kitchen,"
Then.Besides,They'll see how beautiful Iam
And be ashamed--I, too, am America.
