Langston Hughes, Duke Ellington, and Billie Holiday are all famous for their participation in the Harlem Renaissance. Each of these individuals contributed a significant amount to the revival of the African-American culture in the United States.

Langston Hughes was a famous writer/poet. One of his most famous poems, "I, Too", uses symbolism to explain how America mistreats African-American citizens. However, his poem developed a sense of hope, that one day African-Americans will be viewed as equals.

Duke Ellington and Billie Holiday were both musicians who helped to bring Jazz music to mainstream American society. Their performances helped to break down racial barriers, as white Americans began to appreciate their talents and abilities.

How did confucianism help to define relationships between family members and social classes in ancient china?

aivan3 [116]

Confucianism, in the most basic sense, classifies as a religion. However, historians consider Confucianism a civil religion, as its teachings and concepts touch on all aspects of society and life, carried out through rules, laws and codes.

Confucianism blended the typically separate spheres of education, government and church. This religion focused on the revival and interpretation of the ruling religion of the Zhou dynasty, which taught that by taking proactive measures, such as performing ceremonies and rituals, Chinese citizens honored the gods, who returned the appreciation with good luck and prosperity.
