IN TR They make us think. They make us feel. They bleed

on pages with ink. They fill up our hearts and minds

with words that have become recorded history. They

are men and women, using their words to break social and personal boundaries of communal separations

and social injustices. They are black lyrist, writers and poets in America. From the early 18th century slave narratives filled with uplifting spiritual hymnals to

marches with screams for freedom and black rights, these writers have filled pages explaining what it

means to be black in America. Beginning with the

voice of Phyllis Wheatley, we will travel through the footsteps of subjection to the streets of Harlem, followed by the Great Migration, up until now.

Collectively and continuously, African American

literature threads itself throughout US history with

raw emotion, debunking the opposition of constraint with its continuous sound of waiting for to be heard.

1700â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s In the years of the Depression, which are between 1936 and 1938, the Federal Writersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Project (FWP) sent out of work writers to seventeen states to interview ex-slaves. Initially, there were only four states that wanted to be involved in the project which were Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, and Virginia. In 1939, the FWP lost its funding, and the states were ordered to send whatever manuscripts they had collected to Washington. Once most of the materials had arrived at the Library of Congress, Benjamin A. Botkin, the folklore editor of the FWP, organized the narratives by state, and then alphabetically by name of informant within each state, collecting them in 1941 into seventeen bound volumes in thirty-three parts under the title Slave Narratives: A Folk History of Slavery in the United States from Interviews with Former Slaves (Washington, D.C., 1941). The multi-volume set and other project files, including some earlier unbound annotated versions of the narratives, are housed in the Manuscript Division.

IL PHILLIS WHEATLEY

Phillis Wheatley was the first African-American poet to publish a book. Born in 1753 in West Africa, she was enslaved and sold to John Wheatley in New England in 1761. Wheatley

quickly learned to read and write English and studied Latin, Greek, the Bible, and selected classics. She began writing poetry at age thirteen, garnering national acclaim for

for her poem “On the Death of the Rev. Mr. George Whitefield.” In 1771, she accompanied John Wheatley’s son to London, where her work was well received. In 1773, she published

eventually freed, and after John Wheatley and his wife died, she supported herself as a seamstress and poet. In 1776, she wrote a letter and poem in support of George Washington, who replied with an invitation to visit him in Cambridge. In 1778, she married John Peters and had three children who did not survive childhood. Unable to raise funds for a second volume of her work, Wheatley died alone in a boarding house on December 5, 1784, at the age of thirty-one. Many of the poems for her proposed second book have been lost.

for the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society. From then on, despite heckling, mockery, insult, and violent personal attack, Douglass

never flagged in his devotion to the abolitionist cause. During the Civil War (1861–65) Douglass became a consultant to President

Abraham Lincoln, advocating that former slaves be armed for the North and that the war be made a direct confrontation against

slavery. Throughout Reconstruction (1865–77), he fought for full civil rights for freedmen and vigorously supported the women’s rights movement. After Reconstruction, Douglass served as

assistant secretary of the Santo Domingo Commission (1871), and in the District of Columbia he was marshal (1877–81) and recorder of deeds (1881–86). Finally, he was appointed U.S. minister and consul general to Haiti (1889–91).

AN FRANCES HARPER

Born Frances Ellen Watkins on September 24, 1825, in Baltimore, Maryland, Frances E.W. Harper was a leading African-American poet and writer. She was also an activist in the abolitionist in

women’s rights movements. After losing her mother at a young age, Harper was raised by an aunt. She also attended a school

for African-American children run by her uncle, Reverend William Watkins. Harper started writing poetry in her youth. She kept on

writing while working for a Quaker family after finishing school. In

1845, Harper published her first collection of poetry, titled Forest Leaves. She moved to Ohio five years later to teach domestic

skills, such as sewing, at Union Seminary. The school was run by

leading abolitionist John Brown. Harper became dedicated to the abolitionist cause a few years later after her home state of

Maryland passed a fugitive slave law. This law allowed free blacks, such as Harper, to be arrested and sold into slavery. In 1854, Harper published Poems of Miscellaneous Subjects, which

featured one of her most famous works, “Bury Me in a Free Land.” She also became an in demand lecturer on behalf of the

abolitionist movement, appearing with the likes of Frederick Douglass, William Garrison, Lucretia Mott and Lucy Stone.

Harper made literary history in 1859 with the publication of “

married Fenton Harper, who had several children from a previous marriage. Harper retreated from public life, choosing to live with her husband and children in Ohio. In 1862, she gave birth to a

daughter, Mary. In 1864, Harper returned to the lecture circuit after the death of her husband. She also produced several

long-form poems a short while later, including Moses: A Story of the Nile (1869) and Sketches of Southern Life (1872), which explored her experiences during the reconstruction. Harper published her most famous novel Iola Leroy in 1892. Four years later, she cofounded the National Association of

Colored Women with Ida Wells-Barnett, Harriet Tubman and several others. The organization sought to improve the lives and advance the rights of African-American women. By the turn of the century, Harper began to scale down her activities, though she still worked to support such causes as women’s suffrage and such organizations as the NACW and the Women’s Christian Temperance Union.

1900’s

The Great Migration was the relocation of more than 6 million African Americans from the rural South to the cities of the North, Midwest and West from about 1916 to 1970. Driven from their homes by economic opportunities and harsh segregationist laws, many blacks headed north, where they took advantage of the need for industrial workers that arose during the First World War. During this time, African Americans began to build a new place for themselves in the public life, confronting racial prejudice as well as economic, political and social challenges to create a black urban culture that would exert enormous influence in the decades to come. When World War I broke out in Europe in 1914, industrialized urban areas in the North, Midwest and West faced a shortage of industrial laborers, as the war put an end to the steady tide of European immigration to the United States. With war production kicking into high gear, recruiters enticed African Americans to come north. By the end of 1919, some 1 million blacks had left the South, usually traveling by train, boat or bus; a smaller number had automobiles or even horse-drawn carts. In the decade between 1910 and 1920, the black population of major Northern cities grew by large percentages, including New York (66%), Chicago (148 %),

Philadelphia (500%) and Detroit (611%). While segregation was not legalized in the North, as it was in the South, racism and prejudice were nonetheless widespread. The black experience during the Great Migration became an important theme in the artistic movement known first as the New Negro Movement and later as the Harlem Renaissance, which would have an enormous impact on the culture of the era. The civil rights movement directly benefited from this activism. Black migration slowed considerably in the 1930s, when the country sank into the Great Depression, but picked up again with the coming of World War II and the need for wartime production. But returning black soldiers found that the GI Bill didn’t always promise the same postwar benefits for all. By 1970, when the Great Migration ended, its demographic impact was unmistakable: Whereas in 1900, nine out of every 10 black Americans lived in the South, and three out of every four lived on farms, by 1970 the South was home to less than half of the country’s African-Americans, with only 25% living in the region’s rural areas. the BLACK PEN

the FWP, he met Richard Wright, who would become an important literary influence and friend. In 1936, he earned his B.A. from the University of Illinois and Challenge published his short story,

“The Tale of the Blackamoor.” After graduation, Attaway travelled the country and then settled in New York City. He became an

actor and performed with the touring company of 'You Can’t Take It With You'. He also supported himself as a salesman and labor organizer. In 1939, he published his first novel, "Let Me Breathe

"let me breath thunder." helped him write his second novel "Blood on the Forge" (1941)

about the Great Migration experience of three black brothers. As a result of this novel, Attaway often is remembered as a writer

of the Great Migration experience. Although praised by critics,

Attaway’s novels were not commercially successful, leading him to turn to writing for television, radio, and film as well as composing. In the late 1950s and 1960s, his television writing credits included Dave Garroway’s "Wide Wide World," "The Colgate Hour," and a

special "One Hundred Years of Laughter" (1966) on black humor.

Attaway adapted Irving Wallace’s novel "The Man" into a screenplay, but the script was never produced. He studied Caribbean music and published a song collection, "Calypso Song Book" (1957), as well as a history of music for children, "Hear America Singing" (1967). He wrote and adapted songs for artists such as Harry Belafonte,

including the “Banana Boat Song (Day-O),” which he co-wrote with Irving Burgie. In 1962, Attaway married Frances Settele and they had two children, William and Noelle. For eleven years, his family

lived in Barbados where he continued to study Caribbean culture and music. He spent the last years of his life in Berkeley and Los Angeles, California. Attaway died of a heart attack on June 17, 1986 in Los Angeles.

OR Z ZORA Neale Hurtston

Zora Neale Hurston was born on January 7, 1891. She was an American author, anthropologist, and filmmaker. She portrayed racial struggles in the

early 1700s American South and published research on hoodoo. The most popular of her four novels is

"Their Eyes Were Watching God", published in 1937. She also wrote more than 50 short stories, plays, and essays. Hurston was born in Notasulga,

Alabama, and moved with her family to Eatonville.

She later used Eatonville as the setting for many of her stories. It is now the site of the “Zora! Festival”,

held each year in her honor. In her early career, Hurston

conducted anthropological and ethnographic research while a student at Barnard College and Columbia

University. She had an interest in African-American

and Caribbean folklore, and how these contributed to

the community’s identity. She also wrote fiction about contemporary issues in the black community and

became a central figure of the Harlem Renaissance.

the BLACK PEN

Her short satires, drawing from the African-American experience and racial division, were published in

anthologies such as The New Negro and Fire!!. After

moving back to Florida, Hurston wrote and published

her literary anthropology on African-American folklore in North Florida, Mules and Men (1935), and her first three novels: Jonah’s Gourd Vine (1934); Their Eyes Were Watching God (1937); and Moses, Man of the

Mountain (1939). Also published during this time was Tell My Horse: Voodoo and Life in Haiti and Jamaica (1938), documenting her research on rituals in

Jamaica and Haiti. Hurston’s works concerned both

the African-American experience and her struggles as

an African-American woman. During a period of financial and medical difficulties, Hurston was forced to enter

St. Lucie County Welfare Home, where she suffered a stroke. She died of hypertensive heart disease on

January 28, 1960, and was buried at the Garden of Heavenly Rest in Fort Pierce, Florida.

1920’s

The origins of the Harlem Renaissance lie in the Great Migration of the early 20th century, when hundreds of thousands of black people migrated from the South into dense urban areas that offered relatively more economic opportunities and cultural capital. It was, in the words of editor, journalist, and critic Alain Locke, “a spiritual coming of age” for African American artists and thinkers, who seized upon their “first chances for group expression and self-determination.” The Harlem Renaissance poets explored the beauty and pain of black life and sought to define themselves and their community outside of white stereotypes. Poetry from the Harlem Renaissance reflected a diversity of forms and subjects. Some poets brought specifically black cultural creations into their work, infusing their poems with the rhythms of ragtime, jazz, and blues. 31

SONIA SANCHEZ Poet, playwright, professor, activist and one of the foremost

leaders of the Black Studies movement, Sonia Sanchez was born Wilsonia Benita Driver on September 9, 1934, in Birmingham,

Alabama. Her mother died when she was very young and Sanchez

was raised by her grandmother, until she too died when the author was six years old. Sanchez eventually moved to Harlem with her father, a school teacher, in 1943. She earned a BA from Hunter College in 1955 and attended graduate school at New York University, where she studied with the poet Louise Bogan.

Sanchez also attended workshops in Greenwich Village, where she met poets such as Amiri Baraka, Haki R. Madhubuti, and Etheridge Knight, whom she later married. During the early

1960s Sanchez was an integrationist, supporting the ideas of the Congress of Racial Equality. But after listening to the

ideas of Malcolm X, her work and ideas took on a separationist slant. She began teaching in 1965, first on the staff of the
