Huang Xiang
Huang Xiang, one of the greatest poets of 20th-century China, stands in front of his North Side home on Wednesday afternoon. The City of Asylum in Pittsburgh is providing a safe haven for Xiang to create his poetry and art. In China, Xiang was severely persecuted and spent nearly two decades of his life in re-education through labor camps and communist-operated factories and prisons.
