2.1.15 Langston Hughes: Check Out the Google Video. Can You Imagine How He grew From Young and Enduring What the World Hands Out, To Activism and Developing HIs Own Definitive Self?

Langston Hughes (1902-1967) was an American poet, social activist, novelist, playwright, and columnist. 

He was one of the earliest innovators of the then-new literary art form called jazz poetry.

  

I love seeing photos of our beginnings and our old age; a life. Remarkable poem from a remarkable activist and writer. Looking at the photographs, can you imagine how he grew from young and enduring what this world hands out, to activism and developing his own definitive self? 

I Dream A World By Langston Hughes

I dream a world where man 
No other man will scorn, 
Where love will bless the earth 
And peace its paths adorn 
I dream a world where all 
Will know sweet freedom's way, 
Where greed no longer saps the soul 
Nor avarice blights our day. 
A world I dream where black or white, 
Whatever race you be, 
Will share the bounties of the earth 
And every man is free, 
Where wretchedness will hang its head 
And joy, like a pearl, 
Attends the needs of all mankind- 
Of such I dream, my world!

Which is why this video of his poem on Google is wickedness coolness, itself. Get a load of this creation:
