In conclusion, Langston Hughes's poems benefit from a historicism standpoint more than most authors in history as each of his works heavily influenced the civil rights movement and were influenced by the Harlem Renaissance. "I, Too" attempts to convey the frustration of the African American race in an outcry that many listened to. The poem "Lament for Dark Peoples" directly states the dissatisfaction of the African American race, but it has a greater meaning given more context. "Harlem" likely influenced the most important civil rights movement in history progressing the movement forward by leaps and bounds.

b. Restate Thesis:

Langston Hughes has been such an influential individual during the progressing civil rights movement and with clear inspiration from the Harlem Renaissance makes criticization from a historic standpoint the most sensible choice.
