The Negro in Literature and Art: In the United States

""The Negro In Literature And Art: In The United States"" is a comprehensive study of the portrayal of African Americans in American literature and art. Written by Benjamin Griffith Brawley, the book explores the historical and cultural context of African American representation in the arts, from the earliest days of slavery to the contemporary period. The author examines the works of prominent African American writers and artists, such as Frederick Douglass, Langston Hughes, and Jacob Lawrence, as well as the reception of their works by both black and white audiences. Brawley also analyzes the impact of social and political movements, such as the Harlem Renaissance and the Civil Rights Movement, on the representation of African Americans in literature and art. This book is an important contribution to the study of African American culture and history, and provides valuable insights into the ongoing struggle for racial equality in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
