My step-father sent for us. He was working in a steel mill during the war, and making lots of money. But it was hard work, and he never looked the same afterwards. Every day he worked several hours overtime, because they paid well for overtime. But after a while, he couldn\u2019t stand the heat of the furnaces, so he got a job as caretaker of a theater building, and after that as janitor of an apartment house.\r\n\r\nRents were very high for colored people in Cleveland, and the Negro district was extremely crowded, because of the great migration. It was difficult to find a place to live. We always lived, during my high school years, either in an attic or a basement, and paid quite a lot for such inconvenient quarters. White people on the east side of the city were moving out of their frame houses and renting them to Negroes at double and triple the rents they could receive from others. An eight-room house with one bath would be cut up into apartments and five or six families crowded into it, each two-room kitchenette apartment renting for what the whole house had rented for before.\r\n\r\nBut Negroes were coming in in a great dark tide from the South, and they had to have some place to live. Sheds and garages and store fronts were turned into living quarters. As always, the white neighborhoods resented Negroes moving closer and closer\u2014but when the whites did give way, they gave way at very profitable rentals. So most of the colored people\u2019s wages went for rent. The landlords and the banks made it difficult for them to buy houses, so they had to pay the exorbitant rents required. When my step-father quit the steel mill job, my mother went out to work in service to help him meet expenses. She paid a woman four dollars a week to take care of my little brother while she worked as a maid.\r\n\r\nI went to Central High School in Cleveland. We had a magazine called the Belfry Owl. I wrote poems for the Belfry Owl. We had some wise and very good teachers, Miss Roberts and Miss Weimer in English, Miss Chesnutt, who was the daughter of the famous colored writer, Charles W. Chesnutt, and Mr. Hitchcock, who taught geometry with humor, and Mr. Ozanne, who spread the whole world before us in his history classes. Also Clara Dieke, who painted beautiful pictures and who taught us a great deal about many things that are useful to know\u2014about law and order in art and life, and about sticking to a thing until it is done.\r\n\r\nEthel Weimer discovered Carl Sandburg for me. Although I had read of Carl Sandburg before\u2014in an article, I think, in the Kansas City Star about how bad free verse was\u2014I didn\u2019t really know him until Miss Weimer in second-year English brought him, as well as Amy Lowell, Vachel Lindsay, and Edgar Lee Masters, to us. Then I began to try to write like Carl Sandburg.\r\n\r\nLittle Negro dialect poems like Paul Lawrence Dunbar\u2019s and poems without rhyme like Sandburg\u2019s were the first real poems I tried to write. I wrote about love, about the steel mills where my step-father worked, the slums where we lived, and the brown girls from the South, prancing up and down Central Avenue on a spring day.\r\n\r\nOne of the first of my high school poems went like this:\r\n
Just because I loves you\u2014\r\nThat\u2019s de reason why\r\nMy soul is full of color\r\nLike de wings of a butterfly.\r\n\r\nJust because I loves you\r\nThat\u2019s de reason why\r\nMy heart\u2019s a fluttering aspen leaf\r\nWhen you pass by.<\/blockquote>\r\n \r\n\r\nI was fourteen then. And another of the poems was this about the mills:\r\n
The mills\r\nThat grind and grind,\r\nThat grind out steel\r\nAnd grind away the lives\r\nOf men\u2014\r\nIn the sunset their stacks\r\nAre great black silhouettes\r\nAgainst the sky.\r\nIn the dawn\r\nThey belch red fire.\r\nThe mills\u2014\r\nGrinding new steel,\r\nOld men.<\/blockquote>\r\nAnd about Carl Sandburg, my guiding star, I wrote:\r\n
Carl Sandburg\u2019s poems\r\nFall on the white pages of his books\r\nLike blood-clots of song\r\nFrom the wounds of humanity.\r\nI know a lover of life sings\r\nWhen Carl Sandburg sings.\r\nI know a lover of all the living\r\nSings then.<\/blockquote>\r\nCentral was the high school of students of foreign-born parents\u2014until the Negroes came. It is an old high school with many famous graduates. It used to be long ago the high school of the aristocrats, until the aristocrats moved farther out. Then poor whites and foreign-born took over the district. Then during the war, the Negroes came. Now Central is almost entirely a Negro school in the heart of Cleveland\u2019s vast Negro quarter.\r\n\r\nWhen I was there, it was very nearly entirely a foreign-born school, with a few native white and colored American students mixed in. By foreign, I mean children of foreign-born parents. Although some of the students themselves had been born in Poland or Russia, Hungary or Italy. And most were Catholic or Jewish.\r\n\r\nAlthough we got on very well, whenever class elections would come up, there was a distinct Jewish-Gentile division among my classmates. That was perhaps why I held many class and club offices in high school, because often when there was a religious deadlock, a Negro student would win the election. They would compromise on a Negro, feeling, I suppose, that a Negro was neither Jew nor Gentile!\r\n\r\nI wore a sweater covered with club pins most of the time. I was on the track team, and for two seasons, my relay team won the city-wide championships. I was a lieutenant in the military training corps. Once or twice I was on the monthly honor roll for scholarship. And when we were graduated, Class of \u201920, I edited the Year Book.\r\n\r\nMy best pal in high school was a Polish boy named Sartur Andrzejewski. His parents lived in the steel mill district. His mother cooked wonderful cabbage in sweetened vinegar. His rosy-cheeked sisters were named Regina and Sabina. And the whole family had about them a quaint and kindly foreign air, bubbling with hospitality. They were devout Catholics, who lived well and were very jolly.\r\n\r\nI had lots of Jewish friends, too, boys named Nathan and Sidney and Herman, and girls named Sonya and Bess and Leah. I went to my first symphony concert with a Jewish girl\u2014for these children of foreign-born parents were more democratic than native white Americans, and less anti-Negro. They lent me The Gadfly<\/em> and Jean-Christophe<\/em> to read, and copies of the Liberator<\/em> and the Socialist Cal<\/em>l. They were almost all interested in more than basketball and the glee club. They took me to hear Eugene Debs. And when the Russian Revolution broke out, our school almost held a celebration.\r\n\r\nSince it was during the war, and Americanism was being stressed, many of our students, including myself, were then called down to the principal\u2019s office and questioned about our belief in Americanism. Police went to some of the parents\u2019 homes and took all their books away. After that, the principal organized an Americanism Club in our school, and, I reckon, because of the customary split between Jews and Gentiles, I was elected president. But the club didn\u2019t last long, because we were never quite clear about what we were supposed to do. Or why. Except that none of us wanted Eugene Debs locked up. But the principal didn\u2019t seem to feel that Debs fell within the scope of our club. So the faculty let the club die.\r\n\r\nFour years at Central High School taught me many invaluable things. From Miss Dieke, who instructed in painting and lettering and ceramics, I learnt that the only way to get a thing done is to start to do it, then keep on doing it, and finally you\u2019ll finish it, even if in the beginning you think you can\u2019t do it at all. From Miss Weimer I learnt that there are ways of saying or doing things, which may not be the currently approved ways, yet that can be very true and beautiful ways, that people will come to recognize as such in due time. In 1916, the critics said Carl Sandburg was no good as a poet, and free verse was no good. Nobody says that today\u2014yet 1916 is not a lifetime ago.\r\n\r\nFrom the students I learnt that Europe was not so far away, and that when Lenin took power in Russia, something happened in the slums of Woodlawn Avenue that the teachers couldn\u2019t tell us about, and that our principal didn\u2019t want us to know. From the students I learnt, too, that lots of painful words can be flung at people that aren\u2019t nigger<\/em>. Kike<\/em> was one; spick<\/em>, and hunky, others<\/em>.\r\n\r\nBut I soon realized that the kikes and the spicks and the hunkies\u2014scorned though they might be by the pure Americans\u2014all had it on the niggers in one thing. Summer time came and they could get jobs quickly. For even during the war, when help was badly needed, lots of employers would not<\/em> hire Negroes. A colored boy had to search and search for a job.\r\n\r\nMy first summer vacation from high school, I ran a dumb-waiter at Halle\u2019s, a big department store. The dumb-waiter carried stock from the stock room to the various departments of the store. I was continually amazed at trays of perfume that cost fifty dollars a bottle, ladies\u2019 lace collars at twenty-five, and useless little gadgets like gold cigarette lighters that were worth more than six months\u2019 rent on the house where we lived. Yet some people could afford to buy such things without a thought. And did buy them.\r\n\r\nThe second summer vacation I went to join my mother in Chicago. Dad and my mother were separated again, and she was working as cook for a lady who owned a millinery shop in the Loop, a very fashionable shop where society leaders came by appointment and hats were designed to order. I became a delivery boy for that shop. It was a terrifically hot summer, and we lived on the crowded Chicago South Side in a house next to the elevated. The thunder of the trains kept us awake at night. We could afford only one small room for my mother, my little brother, and me.\r\n\r\nSouth State Street was in its glory then, a teeming Negro street with crowded theaters, restaurants, and cabarets. And excitement from noon to noon. Midnight was like day. The street was full of workers and gamblers, prostitutes and pimps, church folks and sinners. The tenements on either side were very congested. For neither love nor money could you find a decent place to live. Profiteers, thugs, and gangsters were coming into their own. The first Sunday I was in town, I went out walking alone to see what the city looked like. I wandered too far outside the Negro district, over beyond Wentworth, and was set upon and beaten by a group of white boys, who said they didn\u2019t allow niggers in that neighborhood. I came home with both eyes blacked and a swollen jaw. That was the summer before the Chicago riots.\r\n\r\nI managed to save a little money, so I went back to high school in Cleveland, leaving my mother in Chicago. I couldn\u2019t afford to eat in a restaurant, and the only thing I knew how to cook myself in the kitchen of the house where I roomed was rice, which I boiled to a paste. Rice and hot dogs, rice and hot dogs, every night for dinner. Then I read myself to sleep.\r\n\r\nI was reading Schopenhauer and Nietzsche, and Edna Ferber and Dreiser, and de Maupassant in French. I never will forget the thrill of first understanding the French of de Maupassant. The soft snow was falling through one of his stories in the little book we used in school, and that I had worked over so long, before I really felt the snow falling there. Then all of a sudden one night the beauty and the meaning of the words in which he made the snow fall, came to me. I think it was de Maupassant who made me really want to be a writer and write stories about Negroes, so true that people in far-away lands would read them\u2014even after I was dead.\r\n\r\nBut I did not dare write stories yet, although poems came to me now spontaneously, from somewhere inside. But there were no stories in my mind. I put the poems down quickly on anything I had at hand when they came into my head, and later I copied them in a notebook. But I began to be afraid to show my poems to anybody, because they had become very serious and very much a part of me. And I was afraid other people might not like them or understand them.\r\n\r\nHowever, I sent some away to a big magazine in New York, where nobody knew me. And the big magazine sent them right back with a printed rejection slip. Then I sent them to one magazine after another\u2014and they always came back promptly. But once Floyd Dell wrote an encouraging word across one of the rejection slips from the Liberator<\/em>.","rendered":"

 <\/p>\n

I was fourteen then. And another of the poems was this about the mills:<\/p>\n

\nThat grind out steel
\nAnd grind away the lives
\nOf men\u2014

\nAre great black silhouettes
\nAgainst the sky.
\nIn the dawn
\nThey belch red fire.
\nThe mills\u2014
\nGrinding new steel,
\nOld men.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And about Carl Sandburg, my guiding star, I wrote:<\/p>\n

Carl Sandburg\u2019s poems
\nFall on the white pages of his books
\nLike blood-clots of song
\nFrom the wounds of humanity.
\nI know a lover of life sings
\nWhen Carl Sandburg sings.
\nI know a lover of all the living
\nSings then.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
