Passage 1: Harlem Renaissance — (1918–1937) A time of great creativity in an African American neighborhood in New York City. ("Renaissance" is a French word meaning "rebirth.") Black artists, musicians, and writers all came together to form a movement. It was based in Harlem but reached much further. The poet Langston Hughes and the novelist Zora Neale Hurston were just two of the writers who took part. The movement helped African Americans to value their art and history. The art that was created during this time was appreciated by people of many races and backgrounds. It educated them about the richness of black culture. Passage 2: June 5, 1931 Dear Mama, This is my second week in Harlem, and I'm so happy I chose this neighborhood for my home! I know it's a little far from you, but I promise to come home to visit once a month. In the meantime, let me tell you about this incredible place. The first thing I noticed is that I am treated with great respect when I walk down the street. People call me "sir," and they tip their hats to me. Here's the best part, Mama: every night, I can go to a different jazz club and hear great musicians like Louis Armstrong on his cornet! I've applied for a job as a waiter at one of the clubs. I don't plan to wait tables for long—just until I can talk someone into listening to me play the piano. Then, you'll have to come visit and hear me perform! Things are really happening here, Mama. I feel as though I'm in the middle of something really important. Sending you all my love, Leroy
