Class Updates 2/27 and 2/28

Yesterday, February 27th, we learned about Marcus Garvey and the U.N.I.A.. He wanted to move as many African Americans back to Africa to start a new life and country, since they would have little success in America as it was.

Today, February 28th, we read poems, listened to music, and looked at paintings, all from the Harlem Renaissance. The Harlem Renaissance was when the African Americans moved north to Harlem (part of Manhattan Island) and expressed themselves in new ways.
