The Harlem Renaissance was an explosion of African-American creativity in the 1920’s and 30’s. Many black writers published poems, novels, and dramas during this time. Along with the writers, many artists also created new paintings and sculptures. Before the Harlem Renaissance, many black Americans were not published writers, nor well known artists, but this movement paved the way for them.

For if dreams dieLife is a broken-winged

Hold fast to dreamsFor when dreams goLife is a barren fieldFrozen with snow.
