I think the poem "Harlem" talks about how you have to give up your dream or stop focusing on it for a while because of what situation you are in right now and until you overcome it you cant really achieve what you were aiming for.

I believe the poem is talking about people's goals and dreams and how they can't achieve them because of some things that they can't control.

The poem is trying to say that when dreams are differed, a few things happen. the dream becomes a heavy Burden, it stays as a dream and never happens, or it slowly fades. possibly meaning everyone in Harlem has a dream but can't achieve the dream cause of the situation.

I think that Langston Hughes was talking about someone's dream being pushed away and the result of that in their life moving forward. The different examples the poet gave like crusting over like a sugary sweet or sagging like a heavy load look like examples of the effects not having their dream happen could have.

I think it talks about having to put your dreams aside due to more pressing matters or having to deal with issues that restrict you form achieving your dreams for a place.

For the poem "Harlem" I see a connection between the text here referring to having to wait for a dream to the civil rights movement that was years later. Thinking about the title "Harlem" and dreams being deferred, it seems to me that Langston Hughes is talking about the struggles in Harlem. And thinking about the "I Have A Dream" speech from Martin Luther King Jr.

The author is connecting the text to the real world issue of peoples dreams being deferred because of something. The title of “Harlem” makes me think that he is saying the dreams of people and kids from Harlem are being deferred.

I think the line “dream deferred” refers to putting your dream aside. This could be especially true in the context of the time period people were living in. I’m assuming that a lot of people in Harlem had to put their dreams aside to focus on more important things. The poem describes that dream that they put aside, will you never go back to it or will you peruse it? The real life implications that that your dream might never come true because of things that are out of your control.

I think the poem is trying to talk about peoples goals and dreams and how they can't achieve it due to some things that they can't control.

I believe this is saying that the inability for a persons dreams to be heard and accomplished can take them over. It is saying when a persons dreams and goals can't be told or heard, it can fester in their souls. It can cause pain or sadness. But it is also saying, it can become stronger and when the dream does show its light, it changes the world in big ways.

i think the poem is talking about how most peoples dreams and what they wanna do is pushed aside because of where they come from, especially when you come from a place that doesn’t have as much as others, people dont pay attention to their real talent and work.

I suppose it a connection could be made that hopes that many people have could either be fulfilled or push aside to never be reached, due to their situation weather that be hope for a job you’ve always wanted or any other desires

The poet of this poem is using analogy’s to make predictions about what happens to a dream that gets put off. Does it Rot away, does it completely disappear or does weigh down on the person with the dream? Depends on the person and the dream?

I think this poem is referring to the inability for some people's dreams to be accomplished because of things out of their control, such as economic issues or social status. These dreams are snuffed out and never see the light of day because of these people's lack of a proper environment to pursue what they love.

Maybe the connections and implications that were being made, especially at that time, is that a lot of people. especially kids, had dreams but those dreams ended up being pushed away and destroyed because of the situation that they were in.
