| Notes | The first-person speaker of this poem watches in admiration and lauds the skill of traditional weavers who make 'Panama Hats'. Although not a response to a particular human rights violation per se, the speaker does bring our attention to economic inequality by highlighting the difference between rich Westerners who buy these hats and the craftspeople who labor intensively but who reap only modest benefits from the mastery of their native crafts. |
