The Harlem Renaissance occurred through the Progressive Era in the US. This time period marked many reforms in an attempt to gain government support for varying groups in the US. In the late 19th century, black activists began highlighting the conditions faced by blacks in the South following the end of Reconstruction. Ida B Wells wrote the Red Record showing the horrors of lynching while WEB Du Bois created the NAACP. This awakening coupled with WWI job opportunities caused many blacks to migrate North. As blacks moved North they settled in neighborhoods together where black culture began to grow with large numbers of blacks together. In New York, Harlem was the hub of writing, music, fashion, clubs, and activism. During the 1920s the jazz clubs would become the center of Jazz Age culture.

Which speaker statement best expresses the reason that many United States senator rejected the treaty of Versailles after world

zzz [600]

After World War I the Senate rejected the Treaty of Versailles which was mainly based on the idea that the Treaty would require the United States to join the League of Nations and may have resulted to a loss of the United States sovereignty. The treaty would also force the United States to get involved in issues that were of less relevance to the U.S. The League of Nations was created as a body to prevent future conflicts by establishing a body to settle disputes between nations and authorize action against the Nation that did not comply. Some Senate members wanted to change the Versailles Treaty, i.e., Henry Cabot Lodge but president Wilson dismissed and disliked his suggestions.
