2. The Birthplace
Harlem, a district within
New York City was the
most popular city, African
Americans migrated too

during the economic
hardships following the
U.S’s involvement in WW1.
Harlem originally housed
upper-class middle class
whites. Civil rights leader
James Weldon Johnson
claimed Harlem was the
“Negro capital of the
world”.
3. The Concept
African Americans or “Blacks” would showcase their
talents, intellect and progress in the arts and politics in
order to obtain more civil rights.
Civil right activist James Weldon Johnson proposed that
in order to establish new vernacular forms and a new
voice of political expression, the stereotypes had to be
broken and separated from the Black race.
The vernacular of sermons and slave songs weren’t the
only forms of expression in literature. New forms of
diction, dialect and expression were made in many new
art forms including poetry, song, theatre, literature and
music.
4. The Concept
In combining many cultures of African decent
including “Blacks” of the West Indies, Africa and the
Caribbean there was a reconnection with African
roots/heritage.
As a result, new vernacular and forms of pure
“Black” expression were made. (The goal was to
exempt white influence or traces of it’s references)
5. Worldwide
Not only was this newfound racial movement of the
arts occurring in Harlem or even the U.S but also in
other parts of the world such as the “West Indies”.
This movement was referred to as “Negritude”.

influence and success of other racial movements
such as the Irish movement in Britain to fuse the
nationalist pride of the Black American population.
