Your Wednesday Morning Poetry

Because there's at least one anniversary this week that people are going to make about themselves, here's the late Amiri Baraka's infamous poem "Somebody Blew Up America," a poem targeted for calling out Irsael while overlooking when the poem brought up persecution of Jewish people. Given that a lot of writing after 9/11 hasn't aged well, this poem still merits a read. Thanks to the Black Agenda Report website for posting the poem.
