``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.''
``The Weary Blues'', Langston Hughes
