” ‘When Harlem Was Heaven,’ An exuberant three-page overview whose atmospheric approach does not fail to acknowledge that during that period, as Langston Hughes put it, “the Negro was in vogue.” While recognizing that the “marketability” of African American culture was driven by white tourists, the introduction still gives a good accounting of the achievements made possible by the “vogue” and includes recollections of Harlem life from Hughes, Dorothy West, and others…” – THE COLLEGE BOARD

“‘Songs of the Seventh Son’ is one of many thoughtful chapters in The Harlem Renaissance volume of NEXUS….Each volume…is a hybrid of a well-written interdisciplinary textbook and a lively, attractive magazine.” Classroom Notes Plus, NATIONAL COUNCIL OF TEACHERS OF ENGLISH
