Excerpt from The Revolution of Eve

Untitled II

From the back of the bus
To the back of a limousine
The child with a 4.0
The child with hoop dreams

From Colored
To Negro
To African-American
To “People of Color”
Too Black
Not Black enough

From coach class
To middle class
Upper class
No class
From mammies and minstrel shows
To tokenism
The realism…
Racism
From the cotton fields
To corporate seats
From million dollar mansions
To living in the streets
