Marcus - White and Black
Monday, October 31, 1927
 
The white man held the blacks as slaves,

And bled their souls in living death;

Bishops and priests, and kings themselves,

Preached that the law was right and just;

And so the people worked and died,

And crumbled into material dust.

Good God! The scheme is just the same

Today, between the black and white

Races of men, who gallop after fame.

Can'st Thou not change this bloody thing,

And make white people see the truth

That over blacks must be their king,

Not white, but of their sornber hue,

To rule a nation of themselves?
