<P> The Harlem Renaissance helped lay the foundation for the post-World War II protest movement of the Civil Rights Movement . Moreover, many black artists who rose to creative maturity afterward were inspired by this literary movement . </P> <P> The Renaissance was more than a literary or artistic movement, as it possessed a certain sociological development--particularly through a new racial consciousness--through ethnic pride, as seen in the Back to Africa movement led by Marcus Garvey . At the same time, a different expression of ethnic pride, promoted by W.E.B. Du Bois, introduced the notion of the "talented tenth": the African Americans who were fortunate enough to inherit money or property or obtain a college degree during the transition from Reconstruction to the Jim Crow period of the early twentieth century . These "talented tenth" were considered the finest examples of the worth of black Americans as a response to the rampant racism of the period . (No particular leadership was assigned to the talented tenth, but they were to be emulated .) In both literature and popular discussion, complex ideas such as Du Bois's concept of "twoness" (dualism) were introduced (see The Souls of Black Folk; 1903). Du Bois explored a divided awareness of one's identity that was a unique critique of the social ramifications of racial consciousness . This exploration was later revived during the Black Pride movement of the early 1970s . </P> <P> "Sometimes I feel discriminated against, but it does not make me angry . It merely astonishes me . How can anyone deny themselves the pleasure of my company? It's beyond me ." - Zora Neale Hurston </P> <P> The Harlem Renaissance was successful in that it brought the Black experience clearly within the corpus of American cultural history . Not only through an explosion of culture, but on a sociological level, the legacy of the Harlem Renaissance redefined how America, and the world, viewed African Americans . The migration of southern Blacks to the north changed the image of the African American from rural, undereducated peasants to one of urban, cosmopolitan sophistication . This new identity led to a greater social consciousness, and African Americans became players on the world stage, expanding intellectual and social contacts internationally . </P>
