NegroIam a Negro: Black as the night is black, Black like the depths of my Africa. I've been a slave: Caesar told me to keep his door-steps clean. I brushed the boots of Washington. I've been a worker: Under my hands the pyramidsarose I made mortar for the Woolworth Building. I've been a singer: All the way from Africa to Georgia I carried my sorrow songs. I made ragtime. I've been a victim: The Belgians cutoff my hands in the Congo. They lynch me still in Mississippi. Iam a Negro: Black as the night is black, Black like the depths of my Africa. HUGHES, Langston. Selected Poems.Forum, v. XXIX, n. 3, jul.1991, p. 7. [Langston Hughes é um escritor estadunidense, afrodescendente. Este poema foi publicado em 1959.]
