In the poem "I Know Why a Cage Bird Sings" its about slavery.This author is talking about people who are slaves and want to be free. It's about slaves who are trapped and yell out for help so they can be free. The author uses repetition and rhyme to capture your interest and to keep you focused on what she is trying to say.
This poem can be connected to poor working conditions because like the slaves who were treated bad by the people who they worked for, people were treated bad in factories many years ago. Poor working conditions continue even today in New York city. The factory workers are getting killed by these horrible working conditions and they are losing body parts like their hands, fingers.
