HUGHES, LANGSTON AND THE HARLEM RENAISSANCE

From "The Simple Stories" to "Don't You want To Be Free," there's nothing dull or uninteresting about Langston Hughes. Join us for a ringside seat to read poetry you'll never forget. Pack a suitcase as we play stowaway on Hughes adventures across the Atlantic to Europe. Find out what brought him home and drew him back to Harlem again and again. Meet the fascinating personalities who also called Harlem home and whose enthusiasm and skill brought about a Renaissance in the arts that people still talk about today. But wait - there's more. In this issue FOOTSTEPS will introduce two new departments. "African Americans in the News" will feature two people whose accomplishments make them people you have to meet. "Let's Find Out" includes a great "fun fact" and some questions you've always wanted to ask.
