Wor.d
But Hughes though? Really?
He was in the midst of the Harlem Renaissance, rejected White Jesus and was very aware of his place in the world as a Black man....
Ha. No I know he was a great icon in Black art & a proponent of Black Rights.He was in the midst of the Harlem Renaissance, rejected White Jesus and was very aware of his place in the world as a Black man....
But was he gay is what I'm asking.
Yeah, he said it in some poem....forgot the name. Though he was moreso asexual in life.
It's okay in my opinion, just something that shouldn't be practice as a collective. I feel like everything we do, we should be aware of the pros and cons. I know one gay dude he's goes to my church and always drop gems about life.seems like you're saying its ok..
But then saying it's not ok

Yeah, he was, so was Countee Cullen. Hughes lowkey wrote about it in "Blessed Assurance" and “The Weary Blues”.Word
But Hughes though? Really?
A lot of gays in the Harlem Renaissance, Jazz and gospel. Billy Strayhorn (Duke Ellington's long time arranger) Sister Rosetta Tharpe (the mother of rock and roll) were both in the life. I could name more...Fashion, music, film, literature---if it's in the arts black gays/lesbians are in the cut. Of course, then and now, it's not publically acknowledged.
Like OP proved, black people don't really see black gays as being pro black, even when we (yes homo) are.
That's why Jamie Foxx stay bearding with a fawg
Props to him for not fronting on a black woman, tho.
