As you read Langston Hughes’
poem “The South,” be thinking of
        these questions:
What does the poem reveal about
        life in the South?
What does the poem suggest is the
  solution to life in the South?
What does the poem reveal about
        life in the North?
Read “One Way Ticket”
What does it say about life in the
            South?
What Langston Hughes is
describing here is a process called
   “The Great Migration” when
    African Americans in large
numbers left the South to move to
  big cities in the North, such as
  Detroit, Chicago, Philadelphia,
    Cleveland, and New York.
They left to escape the racism and
discrimination of the South as well
as for the job opportunities of the
               North.
Those African Americans that went
 to New York City inevitably ended
   up in Harlem, on the northern
   edge of Manhattan Island, and
what developed there through the
1920s and 1930s was a period that
  became known as the “Harlem
           Renaissance.”
As you listen to these songs, each
  by Duke Ellington, what is the
mood that each selection evokes:
     East St. Louis Toodle-oo
           The Mooche
           Mood Indigo
Listen for connections across varied
   disciplines as you read the fourth
paragraph of Lindy Hop in Harlem: The
  Role of Social Dancing. Think about
examples from today's popular culture
 that show connections across music,
             dance, and art.
When you look at these paintings, what
          do you see/feel?
Street Life, Harlem by William H.
              Johnson               Jeunesse by Palmer Hayden
Listen to “The Negro Speaks of
 Rivers.” What do you think it
            means?
Listen to “Harlem.” What do you
         think it means?
What were you able to learn about
   the Harlem Renaissance by
     listening to jazz music?
     …by reading an essay?
    …by looking at paintings?
…by reading/listening to poems?
    Answer these in a writing
assignment due on Friday, March
             2, 2012
