This migration, multi-faceted and multi-directional, found its principal cultural focus in New York City, most notably in Harlem. While many of these opportunities were made possible thanks to the work of Philip Payton, Jr., a prominent black businessman and real estate developer, no two historians will agree on the exact origins of the Harlem Renaissance, and there are few that are able to categorically agree on what the phenomenon actually represented.

The Harlem Renaissance: The History and Legacy of Early 20th Century America’s Most Influential Cultural Movement examines the events and works that occurred in and around Harlem, and how they affected the world at large.
