Paratext Text August 1943.
Notes The paratext of this poem implicitly suggests WW2 and support for the political and social beliefs of the American singer Paul Robeson (Robeson had advocated the Spanish Republic in the Spanish Civil War and was an active member of the Council on African Affairs which promoted African countries’ independence from colonial rule).
