Langston Hughes wrote Weary blues which served to be an extension of the Negro movement. The culture and the life style and the inhuman treatment, the grievances of the African Americans are clearly revealed in his book.
He was an epitome of humanity though Hughes hailed from the black ethnicity. He was the first African American poet who wrote poems which were sentimental and filled with pathos but expressed in a most comical way. This style bore a great impact in the minds of the people who read it.
