In fact, Archibald MacLeish, one of the preamble drafters of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.un.org\/en\/charter-united-nations\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">UN Charter<\/a> and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, was a poet as well as a politician. Unlike prose, the rules of poetry are meant to be bent and broken, allowing writers to use words like paint on a canvas. The result has a unique and powerful ability to provoke empathy. Many poets harness their talents to draw attention to the state of human rights and express deep, complex feelings. Here are five poems that speak to this art form\u2019s relationship to human rights:<\/p>\n<h2><strong>\u201cI Know Why The Caged Bird Sings\u201d &#8211; <\/strong>Maya Angelou<\/h2>\n<p>One of the most significant writers and activists of all time, Maya Angelou (1928-2014) is known for her poetry, memoirs, essays, and more. Her 1969 memoir, <em>I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings, <\/em>explores her early life, which includes sexual abuse. Writing poetry and stories helped her cope with this experience. The poem \u201cI Know Why The Caged Bird Sings\u201d contrasts the lives of two birds &#8211; one free and one caged. The free bird represents white society in America while the caged bird is the black American. With his wings clipped and feet tied, all the bird can do is sing:<\/p>\n<p><em>The caged bird sings<\/em><br \/>\n<em>with a fearful trill<\/em><br \/>\n<em>of things unknown<\/em><br \/>\n<em>but longed for still<\/em><br \/>\n<em>and his tune is heard<\/em><br \/>\n<em>on the distant hill<\/em><br \/>\n<em>for the caged bird<\/em><br \/>\n<em>sings of freedom.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This imagery can be applied to all marginalized groups held hostage by unfair systems. \u201cCaged Bird\u201d challenges the reader to hear the song and take action.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>\u201cLet America Be America Again\u201d &#8211; <\/strong>Langston Hughes<\/h2>\n<p>Langston Hughes (1902-1967) was a crucial part of the Harlem Renaissance, a time in the 1920\u2019s when black intellectualism, literature, and art flourished. Hughes was one of the innovators of \u201cjazz poetry,\u201d and he also wrote plays and short stories. In 1936, he published the poem \u201cLet America Be America Again\u201d in Esquire. He wrote it while on a train ride from New York to Ohio. It was a difficult time for the writer, as his mother had been diagnosed with breast cancer and his first Broadway play didn\u2019t receive great reviews. Racism and criticism from within his own community hounded him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet America Be America Again\u201d centers on the American dream and brings up the point that for many Americans, the ideals of equality and freedom have never been realized. Powerful lines include:<\/p>\n<p><em>I am the poor white, fooled and pushed apart<\/em><br \/>\n<em>I am the Negro bearing slavery&#8217;s scars<\/em><br \/>\n<em>I am the red man driven from the land<\/em><br \/>\n<em>I am the immigrant clutching the hope I seek \u2014<\/em><br \/>\n<em>And finding only the same old stupid plan<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Of dog eat dog, of mighty crush the weak.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Despite this juxtaposition of American ideals and the harsh reality, Hughes ends the poem on a hopeful note that one day, America will live up to its own standards.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>\u201cThe Last Quatrain of the Ballad of Emmett Till\u201d &#8211; <\/strong>Gwendolyn Brooks<\/h2>\n<p>Gwendolyn Brooks (1917-2000) is one of the most famous poets of the 20th century and the first black author to win the Pulitzer Prize. She was also the first black woman appointed as the poetry consultant to the Library of Congress. Her work is deeply informed by politics, especially from the 1960\u2019s on. \u201cThe Last Quatrain of the Ballad of Emmett Till\u201d is so brief, it can be included here in its entirety:<\/p>\n<p><em>(after the murder,<\/em><br \/>\n<em>after the burial)<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Emmett&#8217;s mother is a pretty-faced thing;<\/em><br \/>\n<em>the tint of pulled taffy.<\/em><br \/>\n<em>She sits in a red room,<\/em><br \/>\n<em>drinking black coffee.<\/em><br \/>\n<em>She kisses her killed boy.<\/em><br \/>\n<em>And she is sorry.<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Chaos in windy grays<\/em><br \/>\n<em>through a red prairie.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s so interesting about this poem is that there are no other quatrains. The part of this story that most people are familiar with &#8211; Emmett Till\u2019s murder by racists and a burial where his mother chose to have an open casket to show what they did to her son &#8211; is absent. Brooks gives readers a tiny glimpse into a moment most people don\u2019t really think about when it comes to violations of human rights &#8211; a quiet aftermath, where those left behind are left to just sit with what\u2019s happened. While this poem could be filled with lengthy lamentations, it\u2019s sparse. The weight and grief can\u2019t be expressed except in the empty spaces Brooks creates.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>\u201cPoem About My Rights\u201d &#8211; <\/strong>June Millicent Jordan<\/h2>\n<p>June Jordan (1936-2002) was a bisexual Jamaican-American poet, teacher, essayist, and activist. Issues like gender, immigration, and race frequently came up in her writing. She also emphasised the importance of intersectionality when it came to struggles for equality and human rights. In \u201cPoem About My Rights,\u201d Jordan centers on race, rape, and gender inequality. Jordan details all the things that are \u201cwrong\u201d about her &#8211; wrong color, wrong sex, wrong continent. The poem is vivid and visceral, coming to its peak in the section:<\/p>\n<p><em>I am the history of rape<\/em><br \/>\n<em>I am the history of the rejection of who I am<\/em><br \/>\n<em>I am the history of the terrorized incarceration of<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Myself<\/em><br \/>\n<em>I am not wrong: Wrong is not my name<br \/>\nMy name is my own my own my own<\/em><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a declaration of truth and self-preservation. For anyone who has been told by the powers that be and even their own parents that they are somehow \u201cwrong,\u201d this poem is a rallying cry.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>\u201cI Do\u201d &#8211; <\/strong>Andrea Gibson<\/h2>\n<p>Andrea Gibson (1975) is an American activist and poet who writes on LGBTQ issues, gender norms, social reform, and more. They frequently perform as a slam poet, as well, often performing in competitions and with Button Poetry. In the poem \u201cI Do,\u201d Gibson takes on the challenges faced by queer people head on, opening with the lines:<\/p>\n<p><em>I do<\/em><br \/>\n<em>But the motherfuckers say we can\u2019t.<\/em><br \/>\n<em>\u2018cause you\u2019re at girl and I\u2019m a girl<\/em><br \/>\n<em>or at least something close<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Gibson then details how they\u2019ll have to settle for an \u201cuncivil union\u201d in Vermont instead of a traditional church wedding. They imagine 50 years down the line, when their partner is dying, and there are rules about who can visit. Many queer couples are not allowed to see their loved ones at the end because they don\u2019t count as \u201cfamily members.\u201d The rest of the poem explores the life Gibson and their partner shared, making this issue very real and personal to the reader. That\u2019s the power of poetry. It makes human rights issues truly human.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":19,"featured_media":12400,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8805],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12396","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-issues","generate-columns","tablet-grid-50","mobile-grid-100","grid-parent","grid-50"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!--
