Answer:

involved African American writers, musicians, artists, and performers

was a celebration of African American culture

Step-by-step explanation:

The Harlem Renaissance is the name given from the period in 1920. when African American culture started blossoming in the neighborhood of Harlem in Manhattan, New York City. After the final abolition of slavery and migrations, many black families settled in and around Harlem. Many black artists started making remarkable pieces of literature, philosophy, and music, such as Alain Locke, Langston Hughes, W. E. B. Du Bois, Jean Toomer, Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, and many more.

It was the movement that celebrated Afro-American people, race, and intellectual and artistic talents. Frequent themes were life and experiences of black people, in a sense of social politics, but also serving to create uplifting themes and honoring the experiences.
