• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In the 1920s and 1930s, one New York City neighborhood pulsed with an energy unlike anywhere else. Musicians filled the streets with jazz and blues. Writers penned bold stories and poetry that challenged old ways of thinking. Painters splashed vibrant colors onto canvases, capturing the pride and struggles of a community determined to be seen. This was more than an artistic movement-it was a cultural awakening.

This book takes teen readers deep into the heart of that era, introducing the musicians, poets, actors, activists, and everyday dreamers who transformed Harlem into the epicenter of Black creativity. It explores the music that changed American sound forever, the literature that redefined Black identity, and the fierce debates over art, politics, and pride. It also follows the movement's influence through the Civil Rights era, the Black Arts Movement, hip-hop, and today's cultural landscape.

Packed with powerful stories, vivid scenes, and unforgettable personalities, this is the story of a generation that refused to be silenced. Their voices still echo in today's music, art, and social movements-and they challenge every new generation to carry the torch of creativity, courage, and self-expression.
