The impact of the Great Migration on the life of Langston Hughes was profound, as he witnessed the transformation of African American culture in the early 20th century. As families migrated from the rural South to urban centers in the North, Hughes found inspiration in the rich tapestry of Black culture and experiences. His poetry, essays, and plays often reflected themes of identity, struggle, and resilience, capturing the essence of the Harlem Renaissance. Hughes became a leading voice of this cultural movement, using his work to advocate for social justice and celebrate the beauty of African American life.
