Langston Hughes's stories deal with and serve as a commentary of conditions befalling African Americans during the Depression Era. As Ostrom explains, "To a great degree, his stories speak for those who are disenfranchised, cheated, abused, or ignored because of race or class." (51) Hughes's stories speak of the downtrodden African-Americans neglected and overlooked by a prejudiced society. The recurring theme of powerlessness leads to violence is exemplified by the actions of Sargeant in "On the Road", old man Oyster in "Gumption", and the robber in "Why, You Reckon?"
<span>Hughes's "On the Road" explores what happens when a powerless individual takes action on behalf of his conditions. The short story illustrates the desperation and consequent violent actions of one man's homeless plight on a snowy winter evening.</span>
Answer:
Went.
Explanation:
This question is simply about using the most appropriate verb to fill the gap and make the sentence complete and logical.
A verb can be defined as a doing word or a word that describes an action being performed by someone or something. Some examples of verbs are go, come, dance, went, sit, walk, clap, etc.
We cannot use go in the sentence because the action has been performed already. Therefore, we would use the past tense of go which is went.
