feb 11, 1920 - Harlem Renaissance begins

Description:

"The Harlem Renaissance was an intellectual, social, and artistic explosion that took place in Harlem, New York, spanning the 1920s." Only a small distance from New York, New Jersey likely would have felt the effects of this "explosion" and led to a cultural uprising of african americans against the prejudices that had been holding them back.
