Explanation:
James Mercer Langston Hughes who lived between 1901 to 1967 was an African-American, known for his poetry, social activistism, novels, playwrights, and a columnist from Joplin, Missouri.
He was influenced by black American oral tradition and drawing from the activist experiences gotten in an empowered home, with a duty to help his race, Hughes identified with neglected and downtrodden black people all his life, and glorified them in his work.
He seeks to outrightly portray the joys and hardships of working-class black lives, such that, he avoids both sentimental idealization and negative stereotypes.
Hence, he used his work during the Harlem Renaissance, often referred to as "New Negro Movement" a period charactrized by its intellectual, social, and artistic expedition centered in Harlem, Manhattan, New York City, around 1920s.
