LANGSTON HUGHES (1902-1967) was an American poet, social activist, novelist, playwright, and columnist.  He was an important figure in the Harlem Renaissance and made the African American experience the subject of his writings, which ranged from poetry and plays to novels and newspaper columns.  

Unlike other notable black poets of the period, Hughes refused to differentiate between his personal experience and the common experience of black working-class America.  He wanted to tell the stories of his people in ways that reflected their actual culture, including both their suffering and their love of music, laughter, and language itself.  Permeating his work is pride in the African-American identity and its diverse culture.  "My seeking has been to explain and illuminate the Negro condition in America and obliquely that of all human kind," Hughes is quoted as saying.  He confronted racial stereotypes, protested social conditions, and expanded African America’s image of itself; a "people's poet" who sought to reeducate both audience and artist by lifting the theory of the black aesthetic into reality.
