Once this is established, the rest of the poem seems to be fairly clear. Hughes is asking what happens to the dreams of someone whose dream was denied (deferred). The "someone" in this situation is representative of the minority groups in America. They don't have many ways to accomplish their dreams, as the jobs they want are most likely reserved for whites - the majority.  He writes this poem to prompt thoughts in the majority about the minority. ]]> 2017-11-02 16:39:49 UTC https://padlet.com/melissa_mccarter/nb88ac8g1bvs/wish/203004275 tudorson6709 https://padlet.com/melissa_mccarter/nb88ac8g1bvs/wish/203004282 This poem is about pondering what might happen if you put aside a dream or act on it.]]> 2017-11-02 16:39:50 UTC https://padlet.com/melissa_mccarter/nb88ac8g1bvs/wish/203004282 harrisonlin3682 https://padlet.com/melissa_mccarter/nb88ac8g1bvs/wish/203004412 I believe this poem is about what will you do with your dreams, will you try and accomplish with it?
