Democracy by Langston Hughes Democracy will not come Today, this year Nor ever Through compromise and fear. I have as much right As the other fellow has To stand On my two feet And own the land. I tire so of hearing people say, Let things take their course. Tomorrow is another day. I do not need my freedom when I'm dead. I cannot live on tomorrow's bread. Freedom Is a strong seed Planted In a great need. I live here, too. I want freedom Just as you. _____________________________________________ This is a really inspiring poem! It isn't even about just BLM, it's about LBBTQ+, it's about other races or religions, it's about equal rights for women, for everyone who is treated wrong.
