The Harlem Renaissance was the rebirth of black art in the community of African-Americans living in Harlem, New York during the 1920s.
The Renaissance of Harlem was integrated by a varied cultural revolution that integrated Jazz music, literature and painting, forming the main components of this artistic movement. At the beginning of the 1920s three key works showed the new African-American literary creativity. Harlem Shadows (1922) by Claude McKay, became one of the first African-American works published by a major national publishing house. Cane (1923), by Jean Toomer, is an experimental novel that combines poetry and prose to show southern and urban rural life in the North American Negroes. Finally, Confusion (1924), the first novel by Jessie Fauset, represents the life of the African-American middle class from the point of view of a woman.
Regarding music, The Apollo Theater emerged, one of the most famous popular music clubs in the United States. He is mentioned in Lou Reed's song "Take a Walk on the Wild Side". It is where many artists of this movement found a place to capture their talent.
Louisiana Purchase (French: Vente de la Louisiane 'Sale of Louisiana') was the acquisition of the Louisiana territory of New France (828,000 sq mi (2,140,000 km2; 530,000,000 acres)) by the United States from France in 1803. The U.S. paid fifty million francs ($11,250,000) and a cancellation of debts worth eighteen million francs ($3,750,000) for a total of sixty-eight million francs ($15 million, equivalent to about $600 billion given the GDP of 2017[1]). The Louisiana territory included land from fifteen present U.S. states and two Canadian provinces. The territory contained land that forms Arkansas, Missouri, Iowa, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska; the portion of Minnesota west of the Mississippi River; a large portion of North Dakota; a large portion of South Dakota; the northeastern section of New Mexico; the northern portion of Texas; the area of Montana, Wyoming, and Colorado east of the Continental Divide; Louisiana west of the Mississippi River (plus New Orleans); and small portions of land within the present Canadian provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan. Its non-native population was around 60,000 inhabitants, of whom half were African slaves.[2]
The Kingdom of France controlled the Louisiana territory from 1699 until it was ceded to Spain in 1762. In 1800, Napoleon, then the First Consul of the French Republic, hoping to re-establish an empire in North America, regained ownership of Louisiana. However, France's failure to put down the revolt in Saint-Domingue, coupled with the prospect of renewed warfare with the United Kingdom, prompted Napoleon to sell Louisiana to the United States to fund his military. The Americans originally sought to purchase only the port city of New Orleans and its adjacent coastal lands, but quickly accepted the bargain. The Louisiana Purchase occurred during the term of the third President of the United States, Thomas Jefferson. Before the purchase was finalized, the decision faced Federalist Party opposition; they argued that it was unconstitutional to acquire any territory. Jefferson agreed that the U.S. Constitution did not contain explicit provisions for acquiring territory, but he asserted that his constitutional power to negotiate treaties was sufficient.
I believe the answer is: <span>B) Congressional leaders wanted to restore the Union as quickly as possible.
At that time, the Congressional aware that restoring union would took a lot of time and money. This make them believe that by the time the restoration is dine, the confederates would also regained that power. Because of this, they made southern's reconstruction as their main priority</span>
