EXCELLENT VIDEO AND VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE! MUCH APPRECIATED!! WE AS A PEOPLE SHOULD BE HOLDING OUR HEADS UP AND DON'T LET OTHERS SEE US LOOKING AT THE GROUND!! THANK YOU!!
We weren't allowed to drink out of no outdoor "colored" water fountains anywhere ever, they were always inadequate, we always traveled with all 3gal water cooler, that's they way it was. I was a little 4 maybe 5 year old
Amazing chronicle of the Harlem Renaissance. This movement reverberated around the world in practically every black community. In Harlem it may have been a cultural revolution but in cities such as Los Angeles and Chicago, it was more of a political and economic revolution that defined this period (1918-1930). And while I was familiar with the Harlem Renaissance, this channel gave me a new appreciation of what was happening in the Francophone world. Would like to hear more on the Negritude Movement and Le Jazz Hot!

I’m going to start off with my grandfather( on my mother’s side of the family who was born in 1910 in Petersburg, Virginia came to NYC/Harlem/Sugar Hill in the mid-thirties(1937-1938)… met and got married(to my grandmother by the famous reverend Adam Clayton Powell Sr. In 1938).. Had their first born/birth of his children(his daughter/ my aunt in 1942 & his second/another daughter/my mother born in 1944, both born in NYC/Harlem/Sugar Hill; whom by the way represents the first born generation of New Yorkers… Part two of this saga is My grandmother on my fathers side of the family came/migrated from Richmond, Virginia to NYC in the mid 1950’s… My father who was born in 1939? In Richmond, Virginia came to NYC/Harlem in 1955. He met my mother and eventually got married and the birth of me & my twin brother in 1961 & the birth of their third child/my brother in 1963…. Note: I along with my brothers are the second generation of New Yorkers of our family and residents of Harlem!😎😊
Hang on in there! Friends say Harlem is going back to White. Mother grew up in Harlem in the 1940s over by City College. She loved it. As far as she was concerned the Renascence never ended. Saddest day of her life was having to go back down south to live with her mother and stepfather. Evidently , her brother got in trouble with “ gangs” and she didn’t want to live separated from her only brother. Things did not go well for them down south. She was a Harlem girl with a scholarship to the Fashion Institute of Technology and design. Imagine her waiting in line to buy candy after ALL the white kids got theirs first even though she and her friends arrived first. Needless to say she soon fled, this time to Chicago where I was born. I wouldn’t want to be anything else but who I am, and nothing but a Black woman raised by my beautiful Black Harlem mother! ❤
Thank you for allowing so many to learn and experience our beautiful Harlem. Tonight I feature it on my channel and know it will bless my viewers and beyond. Thank You
@17:00 Marcus Garvery was the realist. Just wasnt the greatest business manager and bought a ship that was not in the best condition or his movement was lead to believe it was a flawed purchase on his part, or something to that effect. UNIA was a strong group and organization
😂 no worries, it is. This and do much more. One could do a dissertation on the HR and an entire course of study on it and its impact on NY , the arts, language, fashion , etc in the US and globally.
Thank you so much for your research and insight. This is one of my favorite eras in black history where we were depicted as our authentic selves. Very much appreciated ✨✊🏾💜✨
17:00 It shouldn't have been a choice between these 3 individuals, but a meeting and merger of minds. The each had great views that worked for different segments of the population. Washington knew the southern mind. For instance, he said "when your head is in the jaws of a lion, you don't pull his whiskers, you pat him on the head". All three of them had great minds and plans for the same goal.
The great migration started actually in the late 1800s. Idk why everyone always forgets the period of reconstruction! Also, it's sad we barely hear about the history of our people before the war as well! We've always been in the north, and slavery existed in the north as well!
Three migrations: four of you count the Exodusters moving West. Yes, we were up north but not as numerous as in the South where we were held in bondage. Captives! But you are correct; there was a great drive out of the lower South but recall - we were stopped violently from leaving . Captives surrounded by terrorists. So much more to study and know about us in the US and all the Americas. There are 2.5 million Afro Mexicans finally recognized as a distinct ethnicity below the border. We are a Diaspora people. We have been more than captives and we will pick up and walk. I’m ready to go again!
@ the north throughout history has tried to erase its ties to slavery. However, what most don't know, is Africans were the main stock, that was sold in the New York stock exchange, and where the bull sits, is where they were sold
Black history doesn’t start with slavery, reconstruction, great migration, or the Harlem Renaissance. These are great areas that happened in our history but must be told
Dubois could accept Black excellence, if I may correct you. He had little tolerance for anything that wasn’t excellent and expected the very best effort, products and behavior from members of his race.
Unfortunately you answer the question with the question. We as women can’t tell the friend from foe BECAUSE WE look alike we assume we’re in good company. Especially on the continent

Thank you I appreciate that so much
I freakin Love Harlem. I am so proud of residing on such historical area. Just my vibe altogether.
Now this is culture!!!!
I love the music in the background and the information
Excellent Video & Very Knowledgeable 🥰Thanks for Sharing

This is BRILLIANT, informational and very well done!! 🎥 👏🏿🏆 Thanks for creating this!!🫶🏿💃🏿💐🌬️✨
Very good 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 this needs to be in a black studies course
It needs to be taught in US History course, after and during/especially between the two world wars.
This needs to be taught in grade schools and continued to be remembered in ALL history courses
😂 no worries, it is. This and do much more. One could do a dissertation on the HR and an entire course of study on it and its impact on NY , the arts, language, fashion , etc in the US and globally.
It is!
Thank you, Brother!! You've given me a new reading list to pursue. This was a terrific experience !
So sad the numbers are not as high as it should be. I'm grateful I found this. Blessings
Let's share with young people. I just did.
Beautiful portrayal of the history and true culture.

I really enjoyed your documentary on the Harlem Renaissance ❤
Great video, would love to see more like this!
Chock full of information and insight on lesser known names of those who contributed to the movement Negritude. 🙌🏾🙌🏾
"Negritude" wtf, haven't heard that in many moons
I've never heard that term...😮
Thank you. I love this
This was SO VERY GOOD. Please continue to craft these amazing insights to our history and power.
Let’s gooooo 🎉
... a masterpiece..
Respect!!
I was completely mesmerized. Excellent!
Thank you 🙏 I appreciate that. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Great Education, and share
Loved this! i'd love to learn more about The Memphis students and their involvement in the renaissance

Thanks so much for sharing this.This is a part of American History!
This should be a core curriculum in the blk community
Thank you!!
I love your voice!
The sound was lost around 34:00...did anyone else experiencing this?

Oh! The new Black Renaissance is happening NOW! 💃🏿 The Roaring 20s have returned lol!😜 Your wish has been granted!🌬️✨🧞♀️
True i AM here 😌

❤❤❤
Did Chicago have a Renaissance?
In the 1930's Chicago sort of had a Literary, Gospel and Urban music Renaissance. You should look it up💞
If I could go back to a period of time in the US as a Black person, it would be the Harlem Renaissance or Reconstruction.
Excellent!
But Ziegfield, not Zigfried!
Just saved this. We kind of already have our own crime bill basically with the enforcement act.
I was surprised when l went to New Orleans and didn't hear no Harlem Jazz🙄

thks proud to be BLACK
