Langston Hughes: Beaumont to Detroit (1943)

Looky here, America What you done done – Let things drift Until the riots come

Now your policemen Let the mobs run free. I reckon you don’t care Nothing about me.

You tell me that hitler Is a mighty bad man. I guess he took lessons From the ku klux klan.

You tell me mussolini’s Got an evil heart. Well, it mus-a been in Beaumont That he had his start –

Cause everything that hitler And mussolini do Negroes get the same Treatment from you

You jim crowed me Before hitler rose to power – And you’re still jim crowing me Right now, this very hour.

Yet you say we’re fightin For democracy. Then why don’t democracy Include me?

I ask you this question Cause I want to know How long I got to fight BOTH HITLER – AND JIM CROW.

This is the most beautiful thing ever, Black women and their young children, their garden, the lives that will give lives, the chosen ones....THIS is God's choice. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🖤

Our black men stay dating outside of our race. Why?

Naah

Not me. It's black or nothing.

I don't know how to break this to you, but the US didn't win the "Space Race"

It’s time to get clear about who you are. It’s time to get clear about what you want. It’s time to get clear about what you need. It’s time to get clear about what you value. It’s time to get clear about what you deserve.

“Either you print it just the way I draw it or I quit” is so savage.
