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.
