The correct answer is Black Power

The Black Power movement, emerged in the 1960s as a form of cultural revival of the US black community, as had happened in the 1920s with the "Harlem Renaissance." Considered by many authors to be the "black consciousness movement" or the "black arts", Black Power encouraged the creation of independent cultural and educational institutions for the black community that lasted until the 1970s.
