Why this resource is included

LOC teacher guides with primary-source images and audio related to Hughes. Includes photographs, manuscripts, and audio recordings. For the campaign: these become discoverable artifacts in the fictional 1958 Harlem. A bookworm entering Hughes’s study at 20 East 127th Street might find manuscript pages on the desk. Free, no registration.
