Edited by Langston Hughes and Arna Bontemps, this revised anthology surveys more than two centuries of poetry connected with Black life, history, identity, and artistic expression. The collection brings together early voices, major African American poets, Caribbean writers, and selected poems about Black experience, creating a broad record of changing language, form, and cultural perspective. The Poetry of the Negro, 1746–1970 serves as a substantial literary reference and a historical map of an evolving poetic tradition.
