Answer:

Racism:

"HOW DARK?" . . . I had not misheard . . . "ARE YOU LIGHT

OR VERY DARK?"

Explanation:

The poem tells a story about a landlady and a man. They have a very pleasant conversation until she finds out he is black. Then is when questions about the shade of darkness of is skin begin.<em> “Are you light-skinned or very dark-skinned?”</em>

The speaker tries to satirize the racism problem, telling the landlady that there are many types of dark. This poem is very dehumanizing and tells about peoples’ ignorance.
