They send me to eat in the kitchen

When company comes,

But I laugh,

And eat well,

And grow strong . . .

Answer:

Pride and Defiance

Explanation:

The tone of the poem is pride and defiance. It speaks of a racial divide in America that white people are perfectly content to ignore. Sending the speaker to the kitchen to eat can be symbolic of segregation, but also of America's desire to ignore the race problem. Kind of like out of sight and out of mind.
