Harlem Renaissance Concept Map Overview

The Harlem Renaissance was a flowering of African American art, literature and music centered in Harlem, New York, during the 1920s and early 1930s. It is usually divided into literature and poetry, visual arts, music and theater, and the social and political debates about race and identity that tied them together. A concept map helps you see how these strands connect.

  • Literature: poetry, novels and essays by writers such as Langston Hughes and Zora Neale Hurston.
  • Visual arts: painting and graphic work exploring Black life and identity, including Aaron Douglas.
  • Music: jazz, blues and the cultural spaces where they were performed and heard.
  • Ideas: the New Negro movement and debates over race, pride and representation.

Use the map to review each branch before a test or essay. To make a version based on your own course notes, create a personalized mind map with CogniGuide.
