Langston Hughes, a prominent figure of the Harlem Renaissance, channels his deep inspiration from Walt Whitman in "The Weary Blues," his debut poetry collection published in 1926. At just twenty-four, Hughes poignantly voices the African American experience during a time of intense racial segregation, blending themes of pain with a profound pride in his heritage. Experience the vibrant rhythms of Hughes’ distinctive “jazz poetry” style in this engaging InAudio production.
