I, Too, Sing America

From the first known African American poet, Lucy Terry, to the recent poet laureate Rita Dove, I, Too, Sing America captures the enormous talent and passion of black writers. This powerful and diverse collection of thirty-six poems spans three centuries, as Langston Hughes, Countee Cullen, W. E. B. Du Bois, and Gwendolyn Brooks, among other poets, bare their souls, speak their minds, trace their roots, and proclaim their dreams. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only.
