Harlem Shadows, The Poems of Claude McKay Mentions in Our Blog
The Glory of the Harlem Renaissance

It was a movement of the senses, steps quickened to the sound of Jazz and Blues, the air was redolent of food reminiscent of Carolina and the Caribbean, the mind was stimulated by new ideas, and the energy was like an electric current to a wire.
