| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Langston Hughes stressed a racial consciousness and cultural nationalism devoid of self-hate which united people of African descent and Africa across the globe. He encouraged pride in their diverse black folk culture and black aesthetic. Hughes was one of the few black writers of any consequence to champion racial consciousness as a source of inspiration for black artists. The book studies his works highly influential during the Harlem Renaissance: The Crisis, Let America Be America Again, and The Ways of White Folks.
