"American poet Langston Hughes was one of the major writers of the Harlem Renaissance that brought about an upsurge in African American self-awareness and self-expression. Hughes' poetry focused on race-related issues of his era in language that was readily accessible to his readers. His poetry reflects a love of humanity together with race pride and bitterness over the treatment of African Americans. The poem "Mother to Son" contains all these elements. It is both a poem of racial protest and racial affirmation."More papers on "Mother to Son":
