- romanticizes the life of the laborer: we can see that in his "A Song for Occupations" where he sings about laborers and their idyllic lives
- uses repetition for emphasis: he often repeats certain words in his poems in order to highlight a meaning
- avoids traditional poetic devices: he uses unorthodox poetic devices which are not usually found in poems, especially of that period
2. Langston Hughes:
- part of the Harlem Renaissance: this refers to the movement of black artists, one of which was Hughes
- looks forward to racial equality: this one is obvious
- describes a fragmented United States: fragmented over slavery and equality, mostly
