LibriVox volunteers bring you 8 recordings of The South by Langston Hughes.
This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for June 19, 2022. ------
Langston Hughes was an American poet and social activist, and is best known as a leader of the Harlem Renaissance. This poem, with its strong imagery, presents a darker facet of the South than is generally displayed in "nice" poetry. - Summary by TriciaG
