Langston Hughes
“Freedom
Is a strong seed
Planted
In a great need.
I live here, too.
I want freedom
Just as you.”
Langston Hughes

Langston Hughes
“Go home and write / a page tonight. / And let that page come out of you - / Then, it will be true.”
Langston Hughes, The Collected Poems

Langston Hughes
“Good people are not that good. To tell the truth, if I were white, no matter how much I loved Negroes, I doubt that I would submit myself to Jim Crow living conditions just to prove my love.” “Neither would I,” said Simple. “Then you would not be very good, either.” “No,” said Simple, “but I would be white.”
Langston Hughes

“They rung my bell to ask me.
Could I recommend a maid.
I said, yes, your momma.”
Langston Hughes

Langston Hughes
“Oppression

Now dreams
Are not available
To the dreamers,
Nor songs
To the singers.

In some lands
Dark night
And cold steel
Prevail--
But the dream
Will come back,
And the song
Break
Its jail.”
Langston Hughes, The Panther and the Lash
