Hughes had much to write about, his many years of travel afforded him the type of cultural experience that could'nt be found if you sit in a little corner of the world for your entire life. Of his poetry, there are two that I enjoyed reading; "Question" and "Harlem". "Question", I believe, talks of equality, finally in death. "Harlem" asks a dream not chased or realized could be compared to things tangible like rotten meat or a dried raisin.
