WHEN I PAINT MY MASTERPIECE
NEGRO BLOOD
Negro blood is sure powerful.Because just one drop of black blood makes a colored man.One drop , you are a negro! Now why is that? Why is black blood so much powerful than any other kind of blood in the world? ...Black is powerful.You can have 99 drops of white blood in your veins , down south.But if that other one drop is black, shame on you. Even if you look white, you're black.That is really powerful.Explain it to me.
Langston HUGHES. 1953
