Poem #3: "My People" by Langston Hughes

"My People" by Langston Hughes is a very interesting poem. By my people Langston Hughes is referring to all black people. I feel that in the poem he is letting the world know that black people are beautiful. At the time period many people discriminated against blacks and considered them inferior. I feel Langston Hughes is showing that they are no different than whites, except for the color of their skin, and that all blacks are beautiful.
