“Dancing with Langston" generously delivers black American history and culture, humor, a cast of vibrant, memorable characters, and a vivid portrait of one of the world’s most celebrated literary artists, Langston Hughes. It is a deeply moving story about the love of a daughter for a complex father she comes to know only after he is gone. It is about something we all have felt profoundly—the necessity and difficulty of following one’s dreams.” —Dr. Charles Johnson, "Middle Passage"
