when he says the darker brother he doesn't literally mean they are brothers he is just saying that he is black. 
He also states that he too is america. Hes not stating that he is the country its self he is inferring that he is also an american although he is of different color ]]> 2017-12-07 16:00:21 UTC https://padlet.com/566kohlera/5rx3npf0cqlz/wish/214180948 attitude 566kohlera https://padlet.com/566kohlera/5rx3npf0cqlz/wish/214181061 he suggests that he is black and when company comes he has to eat in the kitchen because he could be a slave but then he goes on to say one day he wont eat in the kitchen and the company will be ashamed and see how beautiful he is. ]]> 2017-12-07 16:00:31 UTC https://padlet.com/566kohlera/5rx3npf0cqlz/wish/214181061 Shift 566kohlera https://padlet.com/566kohlera/5rx3npf0cqlz/wish/214183444 He starts out saying he has to eat in the kitchen but then the poem shifts and he says tommorrow i will be at the table and no one will dare say to me eat in the kitchen but then theyll see how beautiful i am and be ashamed. This infers that soon he will not be a slave and he will be able to eat where ever he wants. He ends it with i too am american stating that he might be a different race but he too is still an american ]]> 2017-12-07 16:04:24 UTC https://padlet.com/566kohlera/5rx3npf0cqlz/wish/214183444 theme 566kohlera https://padlet.com/566kohlera/5rx3npf0cqlz/wish/214184942 the obvious theme is race and how in the beginning there is a lot of racism and racial oppression but there will be a brighter future and that whites will see that blacks are equal .]]> 2017-12-07 16:07:16 UTC https://padlet.com/566kohlera/5rx3npf0cqlz/wish/214184942
