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.
β¦
They'll see how beautiful I am
And be ashamed,-
I, too, am America.

Uncannyβgiven the Nazification of our regimeβreading about this humble man, formerly pacifist, joining the resistance. He became involved with a plan to assassinate Adolph Hitler.
His faith was profound. On his way to the gallows he said, βThis is the endβfor me, the beginning of life.β
Iβll be there. You?
