    I found out about this poem from this article and wanted to start up a discussion about it without going too off-topic over there, so I decided to submit it on its own.

    Guiding, non-obligatory questions to consider:

    • What kind of emotional response does this poem evoke in you? Why?
    • What are your thoughts about the poem’s subject matter and assertions?
    • Do you think this can/should have a place in American classrooms? If yes, how so? If not, why not?

    As always, remember the principle of charity — for both other commenters and for the poet as well.
