After a lifetime of economic, social and political poverty there comes a time when enough is enough. Our cousins had fought in World War I, endured lynching and fires; lost people during the Red Summer of 1919 and still had a hard time trying to find a decent level of existence in the Land of the Free. The New Negro pumped the brakes on fear, submission and oppression and gave birth to a new consciousness of what it meant to be black in America.
