History - March 2007

I am utterly sadened that I had to come here to ask this question. I am searching for a poem that portrays the struggles of african american people, the triumps they have been through. And on this huge device called the world wide web I can find nothing but mushy watered down mess. Of all the people that struggled and fought no one decided to write it down? I know for a fact this is untrue and it is quite distrubing to discover the lack of representation of these engrossing accounts of things that are very much a part of every Americans history.

So my fellow Americans, would anybody be kind enough to either provide:

-names of poems about slavery, civil rights, etc.
-names of african american poets who wrote on these topics
-links to sites that contain such poems

Thank you and your replies are much appreciated.

Why didn't the honest/rich folk just take all the boats and go themselves ? I'd have left this stinking medieval toilet to it's own devices.

I am currently taking a Civil War class and had a midterm and the true/false question statement was "The North had 2/3 of the countries railroads at the onset on the Civil War."

I put false, because I believed they had more. Now while I believe my Professor is going to mark it wrong, I think I can show him why I thought that through websites.

I found: "http://www.civilwar.org/cwe/AREA002.asp?9002003000000"

That says the North had MORE than 2/3.

MY QUESTION IS:

Can you guys help me find more on-line sources that say there may have been more than 2/3 rails in the North.

Thanks.

They lived in jungles filled with disease, extremely lucky to have reached adulthood and even luckier to live beyond 30. Fought and killed each other and became slaves in their own tribes and eventually sold into slavery to play banjos and pick cotton. Which form of slavery would you choose?

And by the way; your pony talied professors do not tell you this: The settlers did a lot of good thing for the Indians. Educated them and clothed them and taught them how to build houses. Showed them how bad alcohol was for them. Realize that the Indian knew how to ferment fruit to make the deadly stuff too, long before the European came. They also knew how to rob and kill each other before Columbus.
