modernist
world war 1 had the greatest influence on writers of the modernist literary movement. The term must be understood n its philosophical context.

musical and literary talent
the Harlem Renaissance was a rebirth of the musical and literary talent of the African American community. Named after the anthology of Alain Locke "The Negro Movement" of 1925, the Harlem Renaissance is a cultural and social movement that aimed to rediscover black culture and give voice to a society that was underlined.
Ralph Ellison
Both Langston Hughes and Ralph Ellison wrote about the inequality of African Americans during the modernist literary period. The modernist movement had a very self-conscious view of the society, and so the inequality was perceived as something to fix and denounce like many writers did in their work, in order to have an impact over the culture.
less traditional
in the 1960s poetry became less traditional. All the rules about poetry were erased at the beginning of a movement that rejected everything that existed before, in response to the fast change of a new society on the rise and as a wake-up call towards a society that had produced the devastation of the world war II.
