Select the correct answer.

This poem is an example from the Harlem Renaissance. How is it identifiable?

"My old man’s a white old man
And my old mother’s African American
So what? I love them, like the great God above
Loves equally the stork, the sparrow and the pelican
In deportment and in carriage
I , the poet, endorse inter racial marriage!
May the mixing of races be
Avilion for their destiny."
-Based on "Cross" by Langston Hughes
