Address the following: Choose one quote from any of the three documents by Garvey, Locke, and Evans that you believe rhymes with current events in the United States. Explain your choice.IntroductionHarlem of the 1920s was a Mecca for black and white Americans, for totally different reasons, and other people of the African diaspora like Marcus Garvey. (Among the immigrants entering the U.S. up to the early 1920s are Afro-Caribbeans like Garvey). It became the heart and soul of the black arts movement that would last well into the 1960s when Harlem had lost much of luster and glow. People of African origin have influenced the Americas since their arrival on the continent, however, for the majority of their 500+ year presence have not received credit for their work. At the center of the flapper movement is taking chances and pushing the normal boundaries of what is considered acceptable. Harlem became, for whites, one of those places to push those boundaries. Langston Hughes, a poet of the Harlem Renaissance, states, “Certainly it was the musical revue, Shuffle Along (1921), that gave a scintillating send-off to that Negro vogue in Manhattan, which reached its peak just before the crash of 1929, the crash that sent Negroes, white folks, and all rolling down the hill toward the Works Progress Administration.” The quote presents the high spirits that opened the decade and Shuffle Along, because of racism, did not open on Broadway, but at a theater in Harlem. It attracted white theater-goers who made their way north to not only the theater, but nightclubs or speakeasies. This was the flapper crowd. The exuberance did not last forever and Hughes notes, everyone, whites and blacks together rolled down the hill that was the welfare (I am using the pejorative or rude term) program of the New Deal.The sampling of black culture that then becomes norm is not new. Among the visitors to Harlem to see the musical was Ira Gershwin who went on to write the opera Porgy and Bess, a romantic tragedy with all-black characters. The musical also gave rise to a white adaptation of the shuffle, and signature dance of flappers all over America–the Charleston. Not all Americans were flappers. In fact, the 1920s saw a rise in popularity of evangelical leaders like Billy Sunday and Aimee Semple MacPherson. Concurrent was the spread of the new Ku Klux Klan who even marched in the streets of Washington, D.C. in 1925. Hiram Evans’ “The Klan’s Fight for Americanism” represents the perennial struggle for preservation whiteness.Fast forward to 2020 and consider the dominant role rap music plays in American culture, election of a black American to the presidency in 2008, rise in popularity of white supremacist groups like the Boogaloo boys, and growing anti-immigrant sentiment this society currently struggles with.
