As I put on the board in class this morning (thanks for the correction, Mohammed), for Wednesday’s class, please be ready to discuss the following texts:
Zora Neale Hurston, “A Story in Negro Slang” (Don’t forget to use the glossary; it’s posted on the Readings tab here on the blog.)
Langston Hughes, “When the Negro Was in Vogue”
These are both in the Writing New York anthology.
For those of you who are following along on our syllabus, yes this is a change from my original plan. I often deviate from the syllabus once the semester is underway. Always ask if you’re confused about an assignment, but assume that whatever I announce in class or write on the board is what you need to do!
See you on Wednesday!
