I created this anti-MAGA hat on Zazzle over 5 years ago, on July 4, 2019. After the 2024 election, it’s time to brush it off and debut it again.
The reference, of course, is to Langston Hughes’ classic poem, “Let America Be America Again” (1935), which I commend to all of you to read in its entirety, preferably out loud.
Let America be America again.
– Langston Hughes, 1901–1967
Let it be the dream it used to be.
Let it be the pioneer on the plain
Seeking a home where he himself is free.
(America never was America to me.)
