April Is National Poetry Month!
GO AND WIN
MARCUS GARVEY
Ye Negroes of the world, another day has come,
To test your
worth of racial character;
Your lives and homes, you see, are
threatened everywhere;
The time is now for you to do and then to
dare.
Your youth must struggle with the facts as they are seen,
And
blaze the trail for home and life redeemed:
Your hope, I claim,
is in the courage of the time,
So go ye forth and win the battle
that's sublime.
1933
