Question

Part A which statement identifies the central idea of the text? Langston Hughes hidden influence on MLK

Answer 1

Answer:

Despite not explicitly discussing Hughes or his poetry, King quietly conveyed Hughes’ words and ideas in several of his speeches.

Explanation:

"Langston Hughes Hidden Influence on MLK" is an article written by Jason Miller. The article talks about how the poet Hughes has impacted Martin Luther King Jr.

In his article, he asserts that MLK used to use the words of poet Hughes publicly. But during the time of Civil Right's Movement, MLK stopped publicly saying Hughes name.

The central theme, therefore, of the article is that despite not explicitly discussing Hughes name, he quietly used his words in his speeches, sermons, etc.
