Can anybody give me a summary on "home" by gwendolyn brooks ?

The main character is Maud Martha, a girl who’s probably in her early teens. She is sitting with Mama (her mother) and Helen (her sister, probably in her late teens) in rocking chairs on the front porch of their house. The family is waiting for Papa to come home from work. On his lunch break, he was planning to go to the mortgage company to try to get an extension on their payments. The family is tense; they’re thinking about what they’ll do if Papa’s request is rejected. Optimistically, Mama suggests they might move to an apartment that’s better than the house. The girls know that would be too expensive for them, but Helen says her friends might visit more if she lived in a better neighborhood. Maud Martha comments on how nice it was having a fire going in the fireplace during the winter. This makes everyone sad. Maud Martha exclaims that losing the house would kill Papa. Helen contradicts her, claiming Papa loves them, not the house. Mama leaves the fate of the house in God’s hands. Papa comes home, greets the family, and goes inside. Everyone is excited. Mama goes inside with him. Soon, Mama tells the girls that Papa arranged the extension and the house is safe. Helen says she wants to have a party, so her friends will know they’re home owners, not renters.

explanation:

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
