gmatthews's comments

The Harlem Renaissance was a turning point in shaping a new identity for African Americans. Only three generations removed from slavery, the Harlem Renaissance was a time when African Americans were finally free from the mental chains of slavery. African Americans began redefining their identity and celebrating their heritage.
