Sweet Flypaper is a collaboration between Langston Hughes and Roy DeCarava. The collaboration between them in this novel helped give more insight into Harlem's black community while also being easily readable for white viewers and equally appreciated by black people as well.
However, it's also this collaboration that can face some challenges as the white community may not see any interest or reason as to why they must document and publish the black community's way of living and culture in their archives. Even with how real these photos may be in correctly representing the black community's culture, they may still face some hurtful stereotypes and pushback in ever being properly represented in society.
