“If I could take all my parts with me when I go somewhere / and not have to say to one of them, ‘No, you stay home tonight, you won’t be welcome’/ because I’m going to an all-white party where I can be gay but not Black / Or I’m going to a Black poetry reading, and half the poets are anti-homosexual / or thousands of situations where something of what I am cannot come with me / The day all the different parts of me can come along / we would have what I would call / a revolution” IfsI CanDifferentHomeReadingBlackWhitePartyHalfSituationPoetRevolutionGayWelcomeIf I CouldTonightBlack PeopleHomosexualityHomosexualGay PrideLesbianismAnti GayAnti DiscriminationPoetry Reading Author:Pat Parker
