Answer 1

B. a greater spirit of self-determination for African Americans

Step-by-step explanation:

The Harlem Renaissance was a cultural movement that emerged in the New York Neighborhood of Harlem in the 1910s and the 1920s.

The Harlem Renaissance manifested in music, painting, and literature, and resulted from the migration of many African Americans to this part of the island of Manhattan because of the lower housing prices.

Figures such as Josephine Baker, W. E. B. Du Bois, Countee Cullen and Landon Hughes, called for more self-determination and development for African Americans. They also called for African American pride.
