On Sunday the 1st of February, this image appeared on Google’s home page and we researched to find out who the man is. This is famed African-American poet and social activist Langston Hughes and Google celebrated what would have been the 113th through a powerful tribute on its home page.

The Doodle — the name Google has given to its front-page features — honours Hughes through animated video featuring lines from his famous poem “I Dream a World.”

“A world I dream where black or white, whatever race you be, will share the bounties of the earth and every man is free,” Hughes wrote in the poem.
