Langston Hughes, Concrete Loop & Other Thoughts

Concrete Loop is cooking up storms ! There has been quite a bit of controversy over claims of homophobic commenters attacking B. Scott, a new columnist on the blogsite. Darian Anderson made a video in defence of B.Scott which was thus posted on Concrete Loop (More about B. Scott later). Langston Hughes was brought up in the comment section of CL and YouTube as someone who was a gay black man. Another commenter dissented, arguing that Langston never officially came out and noting that Isaac Julien’s film was made from his black gay perspective, not as a biographical view of Langston.
