Modernism+harlem Renaissance

"Mr. Baker perceives the Harlem Renaissance as a crucial moment in a movement, predating the 1920's, when Afro-Americans embraced the task of self-determination and in so doing gave forth a distinctive form of expression that still echoes in a broad spectrum of 20th-century Afro-American arts. . . . Modernism and the Harlem Renaissance may well become Afro-America's 'studying manual.'"-Tonya Bolden, New York Times Book ReviewBaker, Houston A., Jr. is the author of 'Modernism+harlem Renaissance' with ISBN 9780226035246 and ISBN 0226035247.
