Thank You Ma’am by Langston Hughes (Communist? Communist!!) follows a young boy named Roger as he tries to steal a woman’s purse. The story follows a simple arc -- one event, two characters in three pages -- and yet is ripe with hope and optimism. In this episode, we explore Langston Hughe’s life and touch on the Harlem Renaissance, while also discussing themes of mutual aid and reciprocity.
