I first read Langston Hughes in college. He wasn't taught in my high school, which I guess isn't must of a surprise when you consider that I went to high school in a small Midwestern town in the 1980s. He remains one of my all time favorite poets. My favorite poem of his is still A Dream Deferred. It's always resonated with me.
