“Harlem” by Langston Hughes describes the oppression of African Americans back then. Major themes in it included delay, sadness, and dreams. I don’t know what you view the American identity as so I’ll give you a few questions about your perspective that you can fill in. What do you view yourself as? Do you identify as an American or would you call yourself something else. What culture do you belong in? Finally, to summarize state what your identify has in-common to Langston Hughes poem. One thing you could do is say you also pursue your dreams in hope of it successfully occurring.
