Harlem Renaissance Herald

Write a series of diary entries from the perspective of an African American artist during the Harlem Renaissance.

This period was a golden age for African American culture, particularly in the areas of literature, art, and music. How did the socio-political context influence your art and your worldview as this artist? How did you navigate the space between self-expression and the struggle for racial equality? This prompt challenges you to delve into the lived experiences of artists from marginalised communities and gives room to explore themes of racial identity, perseverance, and the power of creative expression.
