## Copyright status
1. Poems published before 1 January 1929 are public domain in all relevant
   jurisdictions. These poems may therefore be included in this repository.
2. Pursuant to Article 23 of the Copyright Act of the People's Republic of
   China amended in 2020, all works of Langston Hughes are now in the public

   However, the United States and Canada have it set at 70 years. Therefore,
   you **cannot** include poems published on or after 1 January 1929 in this
   repository.

   maybe included in this repository if it is accompanied by literary
