American Modernism
Both the American Modernism and the Harlem Renaissance periods of literature were at the beginning of the 20th century. The Harlem Renaissance is generally thought to have gained ground beginning in 1920 while American Modernism is thought to have started appearing just a few years earlier. Both these movements occurred during the same time. The Harlem Renaissance eventually faded and was replaced by the Civil Rights Movement.
