The tone of this poem was Very aggressive because they keep stressing & I quote “who will survive in American” it’s a rhetorical question having you to think about will you actually survive in America or not. Personification was used in stanza 3 line 1 ”America striped for bed and we had not all closed out eyes”. But this poem is a commentary is only a explanation on how America was built on a violent, inhumane legacy, and I believe what the poem was trying to unfold is that all one needs in life is a good home and a family, and how everything else is basically needless. It also has a lot to do with black people, as the most mistreated people to ever live in America - however, they survive, and will continue to do so. It explains how America was built on the backs of black slaves. How they will be the ones to survive in America.
