1. The lead section of this article is very good. it provides an introductory sentence that describes who Langston Hughes was. Also, it briefly talks about his life story. It is not overly detailed, with a couple of examples of his works, but perfectly summarizes the important information that the article will develop later on.

2. This article covers all of the aspects of Hughes's life and the important movements in which he participated. Additionally, it has information about his personal life that may have influenced his life decisions or not. The article's content is very complete.

3. The article is very neutral and informational. It does not attempt to persuade its readers to believe a certain position, but rather just informs them of Hughes's personal life and activism.

4. The sources are reliable. Most of them are drawn from scholarly articles, which are credible. All of the information in the article is referenced and backed up by multiple sources.
