I am clergy at Salem UMC in Harlem! Frederick Cullen (Countee’s adopted dad) founded my church. I never tire of learning of this legacy! Countee’s poetry… the Dubois wedding! It’s all so amazing!
Yes and thank you for commenting. We actually have quite a few follow ups remaining in our HR series. They will be coming out in our February/Black History releases.

Thank you for sharing this, I never learned about him in school I had to search out his poetry.
Thank you for this post. I appreciate this.
I red about him in afro American history in political science lecture at varsity. May his soul continue to rest in harmony.
In 7th grade we had to memorize and recite a poem by our favorite poets. I did "Baltimore" by Countee Cullen....left the whole class speechless!😂
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Marriage was annulled. Cullen and Richard Wright were my introduction to poetry and literature.
Have you considered other Harlem Renaissance writers such as Alain Locke and Langton Hughes.
