USA HISTORY

Detailed explanation-1: -Jazz during the Harlem Renaissance. The Harlem Renaissance was about giving a voice to the experiences of African Americans, and nothing gave expression to the African American experience better than jazz. Jazz was born out of the Black experience in America, basically fusing African and European musical traditions.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Harlem Renaissance was an artistic flowering of the “New Negro” movement as its participants celebrated their African heritage and embraced self-expression, rejecting long-standing-and often degrading-stereotypes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Musicians. No aspect of the Harlem Renaissance shaped America and the entire world as much as jazz. Jazz flouted many musical conventions with its syncopated rhythms and improvised instrumental solos. Thousands of city dwellers flocked night after night to see the same performers.
