Basic bibliography: Poem Still I Rise BY MAYA ANGELOU You may write me down in history With your bitter, twisted lies, You may trod me in the very dirt But still, like dust, I\'ll rise. Does my sassiness upset you? Why are you beset with gloom? ’Cause I walk like I\'ve got oil wells Pumping in my living room. Just like moons and like suns, With the certainty of tides, Just like hopes springing high, Still I\'ll rise. Did you want to see me broken? Bowed head and lowered eyes? Shoulders falling down like teardrops, Weakened by my soulful cries? Does my haughtiness offend you? Don\'t you take it awful hard ’Cause I laugh like I\'ve got gold mines Diggin’ in my own backyard. You may shoot me with your words, You may cut me with your eyes, You may kill me with your hatefulness, But still, like air, I’ll rise. Does my sexiness upset you? Does it come as a surprise That I dance like I\'ve got diamonds At the meeting of my thighs? Out of the huts of history’s shame I rise Up from a past that’s rooted in pain I rise I\'m a black ocean, leaping and wide, Welling and swelling I bear in the tide. Leaving behind nights of terror and fear I rise Into a daybreak that’s wondrously clear I rise Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave, I am the dream and the hope of the slave. I rise I rise I rise JAMES BALDWIN DEBATES WILLIAM F. BUCKLEY (1965) | BLOG This is a audio clip from a documentary that ran on network educational television in early 1969. Clip Link: https://youtu.be/dO2kwzJ_Zg4 People don\'t have any mercy. They tear you limb from limb, in the name of love. Then, when you\'re dead, when they\'ve killed you by what they made you go through, they say you didn\'t have any character. They weep big, bitter tears - not for you. For themselves, because they\'ve lost their toy. James Baldwin, Another Country Last Audio Clip: “You can buy a house but not a home. With money you can buy a clock, but not time. With money you can buy a bed, but not sleep. With money you can buy food, but not appetite. With money you can have Insurance, but not safety. And this is the problem that we all have. There are things you cannot buy, with material world, with money.“-ANON Bonus: “With money you can buy a book, but not knowledge.” -ANON https://youtu.be/Hk846zUSyqk'
