In the book of AMERICAN NEGRO POETRY (1922) Dunbar's friend James Weldon Johnson wrote - "Paul Laurence Dunbar stands out as the first poet from the Negro race in the United States to show a combined mastery over poetic material and poetic technique, to reveal innate literary distinction in what he wrote, and to maintain a high level of performance. He was the first to rise to a height from which he could take a perspective view of his own race. He was the first to see objectively its humor, its superstitions, its short-comings; the first to feel sympathetically its heart-wounds, its yearnings, its aspirations, and to voice them all in a purely literary form." Laurence Dunbar was listed in Molefi Kete Asante book 100 GREATEST AFRICAN AMERICANS. His legacy also includes a number of schools are named after him.
