518    Originally produced by California Newsreel in 2002. 
520    Langston Hughes was one of the most prominent figures of 
       the Harlem Renaissance and is often referred to as 
       Harlem's poet laureate. This film shows how Hughes 
       successfully fused jazz, blues and common speech to 
       celebrate the beauty of Black life. Hughes' Dream Harlem 
       presents a vision of the esteemed poet in present-day 
       Harlem and makes an important case for Hughes' impact on 
       hip-hop and the spoken-word community. This multi-layered 
       documentary includes roundtable discussions of his 
       contributions and a tour of Hughes' Harlem hang-outs. The 
       distinguished actor/activist Ossie Davis offers the 
       narration in his soulful baritone, while his wife and 
       collaborator, the renowned Ruby Dee, reflects on Hughes' 
       life with such notable personalities as poet Sonia Sanchez
       and music industry icon Damon Dash. The artists testify to
       his continuing impact on their work and his steadfast 
       racial pride and artistic independence. Hughes' Dream 
       Harlem will inspire students to discover Hughes' work 
       while encouraging them to pursue their own writing. 
       "Hughes' Dream Harlem links the poetic voice of African 
       Americans from the Harlem Renaissance to today's Def 
       Poetry Jam. It demonstrates continuity from Harlem of the 
       past to the socio-political issues facing Africans in 
       America today in the present." - Danny Simmons, Executive 
       Producer, Def Poetry. "Hughes' Dream Harlem makes the 
       connection to today's spoken word movement inspired by the
       music-based poetry form that Langston invented." - St. 
       Clair Bourne, Filmmaker. "Imaginatively filmed, this fine 
       program is recommended for both school and public 
       libraries." - Booklist. "The interviews are incredibly 
       powerful. This fascinating film should be a part of 
       African American history, poetry and literature 
       collections." - Library Journal.
