In New York City, they found their voices in a politically, socially and culturally vibrant Harlem. Harlem spawned writers and poets like Langston Hughes and Zora Neale Hurston,  whose writing encouraged African Americans to take on an independent, enlightened approach to education, culture and politics.]]> 2018-06-03 20:54:30 UTC https://padlet.com/laura_ibbotson23/gm5f6idouwr0/wish/265244593 https://padlet.com/laura_ibbotson23/gm5f6idouwr0/wish/265245827 2018-06-03 21:08:16 UTC https://padlet.com/laura_ibbotson23/gm5f6idouwr0/wish/265245827 https://padlet.com/laura_ibbotson23/gm5f6idouwr0/wish/265415806  I, Too
 Langston Hughes 1926
 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 sit at the table
 When company comes. Nobody’ll dare Say to me “Eat in the kitchen,” 
Then. 
Besides,
They’ll see how beautiful I am And be ashamed,— I, too, am America ]]> 2018-06-04 15:16:44 UTC https://padlet.com/laura_ibbotson23/gm5f6idouwr0/wish/265415806
