Langston Hughes’ Simple as Black Every Man
Journal Title: Notions A Journal of English Literature - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 2
Abstract
Simple is the most important fictional character of Hughes. He was what many Negroes thought they were. Simple is moulded by racism which has kept him poor, unlettered and hated. The truths that Simple speaks are black realities. Simple touches every aspect of Negro life. As he is realistic he sees both the positive and negative sides. At the same time Simple is fully convinced that despite the hardships and limitation encountered by the Blacks in America, he has the ability to endure and continue.
