It's Lit! Season 2 Episode 14 Literary Icons You NEED to Know From the Harlem Renaissance 2020

One of the most influential periods in Black American History post-slavery is the Harlem Renaissance, an intellectual, social, and artistic explosion centered in Harlem, Manhattan, New York City. Novels like Passing by Nella Larsen, Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston, and the poetry of Langston Hughes were all written during this period and have become important pieces of the American literary canon.

Not only in America, but as part of the entire Black diaspora.
