The poem is 'Still I rise"
Meaning of Stanza
What keeps a person from bowing before hatred and oppression. It is sheer determination. If you want to use your hateful words to destroy me you can. Your hateful look cannot kill me or stop me because they will give me more energy to rise. While slavery was abolished long agao, discrimination has not been yet fully eliminated from the US society.
