"So the choice is not between one way for the Negro and another way for the rest, but between American institutions frustrated on the one hand and American ideals progressively fulfilled and realized on the other." -Alain Locke, The New Negro (1925) The New Negro (1925) edited by Alain Locke is an anthology of fiction, poetry, and essays by artists who shaped the Harlem Renaissance such as W.E.B. du Bois, Walter Francis White, and Zora Neale Hurston, to name a few.
