The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City is presenting the "The Harlem Renaissance and Transatlantic Modernism" exhibit from February 25 through July 28, 2024. The exhibit will feature over 160 works from Black artists that depict life in Harlem and other cities from the 1920s to the 1940s.
“Harlem,” “I, Too,” and “Mother to Son” are among Langston Hughes’ most famous poems. His poetry’s lyrical realism and subject matter still resonate today.
