Black IS Beautiful | Langston Hughes
Langston Hughes, African American poet and playwright, was born on this day, February 1, in 1902.
Thank you! and Yes, Black IS Beautiful.
The night is beautiful,
So the faces of my people.
The stars are beautiful,
So the eyes of my people
Beautiful, also, is the sun.
Beautiful, also, are the souls of my people
— Langston Hughes (My People)
