Abstract

The present study makes a critical analysis of the protest poetry of Langston Hughes, one of the most demonstrative African American poets and a leader of the most important literary and political movement in America—Harlem Renaissance. The present paper mainly provides a comprehensive view on the major themes of Hughes poems and how he firmly believed in the equality of all races. As a Black poet he chose to write about the harsh realities and openly spoke about the discriminations faced by the African Americans in America.
