Harlem & Moscow (A Soviet Film on Negro Life in America as Told by Langston Hughes and Others) by Alle Mims is a new play that follows a 31 year old Langston Hughes as he recounts the memory of a trip to Soviet Russia with several other Black Americans to make a film about Black life in America. The play deals with issues of identity, being a model minority, and what people will do to use you when they think they have the chance, even as it is masked as doing a good thing.
