Question 6

What was one revolutionary aim of the writings to come out of the Harlem Renaissance?

to give voice to the African American culture.

Explanation:

The movement, originally called the New Negro Movement, took place in the United States in the first quarter of the twentieth century influencing artistic and political ideologies and working to embrace the elements of African American culture. The goal of the Harlem Renaissance was to extend full citizenship rights to African Americans. For the professional class and newly educated African Americans, the reduced second-class citizenship which was applied to them was morally reprehensible, and that discontent stretched among the migrating blacks.
