There can be no doubt that the emer-
gence of the Negro writer in the post-war
period stemmed, in part, from the fact that
Live he was inclined to exploit the opportunity to
(5) write about himself. It was more than that,
however. The movement that has variously
been called the "Harlem Renaissance," the
"Blank Renaissance," and the "New Negro
Movement" was essentially a part of the
(10) growing interest of American literary circles
in the immediate and pressing social and
economic problems. This growing interest
coincided with two developments in Negro
life that fostered the growth of the New
(15) Negro Movement. These two factors, the
keener realization of injustice and the
improvement of the capacity for expression,
produced a crop of Negro writers who con-
stituted the "Harlem Renaissance."
(20) The literature of the Harlem Renaissance
was, for the most part, the work of a race-
conscious group. Through poetry, prose, and
song, the writers cried out against social and
economic wrongs. They protested against
(25) segregation and lynching. They demanded
higher wages, shorter hours, and better con-
ditions of work. They stood for full social
equality and first-class citizenship. The new
vision of social and economic freedom that
(30) they had did not force them to embrace the
several foreign ideologies that sought to sink
their roots in some American groups during
the period.
The writers of the Harlem Renaissance,
(35) bitter and cynical as some of them were,
gave little attention to the propaganda of the
socialists and communists. The editors of the
Messenger ventured the opinion that the New
Negro was the "product of the same world-
(40) wide forces that have brought into being the
great liberal and radical movements that are
now seizing the reins of power in all the civi-
lized countries of the world." Such forces
may have produced the New Negro, but the
(45) more articulate of the group did not resort
to advocating the type of political action that
would have subverted American constitu-
tional government. Indeed, the writers of the
Harlem Renaissance were not so much
(50) revolting against the system as they were
protesting its inefficient operation. In this
approach they proved as characteristically
American as any writers of the period.
