Considered this country's poet laureate by many Americans of African descent,



Langston Hughes' work also captured the feelings, experiences, and dreams



common to all human beings.  Poetry, it has been said, the middle zone



between words and music.  Langston Hughes wanted his poems to convey the



spirit of American jazz. A look at his life, his religion, and his message.
