No one that I know of at the sphere has spoken about Langston Hughes. I can't say that I have much to say myself, but like the Wallace Stevens' thread, whenever I read Hughes, I always end up asking myself, why aren't I reading him more. As I said in the Stevens' thread, The problem with death is that it cuts off all that reading. Maybe
this article will start an interesting conversation. I like essays like this. Reminds me that my profession is more relevant than ever. Happy reading.
Cheers,
Greg
Cross-posted with Bill. Maybe I posted this in the wrong thread.
PPS I copied and posted this one in the Black History month thread as well.
