The influential magazine Survey Graphic released a special issue titled Harlem, Mecca of the New Negro, capturing the energy of the Harlem Renaissance. Curated by Alain Locke, the issue featured groundbreaking essays, poetry, and art by leading African-American thinkers and creatives. By the end of 1925, Locke expanded this work into the landmark anthology The New Negro, a defining publication that celebrated Black cultural achievement and intellectualism, helping to reshape how African-American identity was viewed in the U.S. and abroad.
