HARASSMENT OF NEGROES: AN EXPLICATION IN "BALLAD OF THE LANDLORD"

One must note that the condition of Negro community in America in not better than Dalits in India. There is great disagreement between Negroes and American. Langston Hughes overtly described Negroes as sweet, meek, docile, humble and kind. It is noteworthy to pay attention on the humiliation of the Negroes. Here, I have made an attempt to focus on the plight of Negroes in relation with the poem “Ballad of the Landlord”. The paper discloses distinction between the Negro and Americans and highlights the inequality in America. It also shows Americans utmost endeavor to crush the lives of Negroes.
