"Thank You, M'am"In the year 1955, author and poet Langston Hughes wrote the famous story, "Thank You, M'am." This was shortly after the song "Blue Suede Shoes" came out and was an instant hit.
The song and the story are connected in a special way. As you enjoy the song, think about what would be the "blue suede shoes" of our times.
