my opinion towards this poem is that the black people were slaves and will
never be free. like it states in the poem which is a very truthful
statement.

Audre Lorde was born in a time when it was hard for black people! working
for the white man is symbolic to how slavery was. So yes, black people were
really slaves. It is not racist one bit. Audre Lorde was black, AND a
lesbian. Please, do some research before you assume what this poem might
have symbolized.
On that note, I think it was beautiful, like all her work. thank you for
posting that.

Let's just say this due to your lack of knowledge about the author and
saying that she is calling us dumb asses and saying that we ar still slaves
shows your complete ingornace and stupidty. I think that you just wrote a
comment based on what you thought the poem was about because you were just
to stupid to understand where Audre Lorde is coming from. So next time
before, you decide to post a comment talking shit..think about what you
really read and try to at least learn some facts on what you are trying to
talk about--Thank You!

Well i think that he is most defiantly is talking about black people. This
peom is telling the world that black people (unicorn), dumb asses. This
poem is very racist and it looks down on black people saying we are still
slaves. If that is the case white people are slaves to because we all are
working for the WHITE man.

i believe the unicorn in this poem is highly symbolic. osf something
greater than jsut a myhtical creature. could possibly be a symbol for human
nature. it makes perfect sense to me. What do other people think? Let me
know.
