BLACK AND WHITE
MARCUS GARVEY
I'm black not white, which is no crime;
To have all things makes
one so great:
If blacks did have, all whites would crave
More
black to be for all that time.
The whites have ALL, in regal
state,
And blacks do think them more sublime
But whites
would think the blacks so brave
If they had greater wealth all
time.
1934
