NEW YORK, NY -- Representative Adriano Espaillat (NY-13) introduces the first-ever resolution honoring the legacy of the Harlem Renaissance Movement – a defining cultural, social, and political movement in American history.

“Black history is American history – and the contributions of African Americans are reflected throughout our society on a daily basis, not only during the month of February but each and every day,” said Rep. Espaillat. "The Harlem Renaissance is one such example and was a cultural movement that radically redefined the Black experience in New York City and had a resounding affect across the United States -- one that continues to influence artists, writers, and intellectuals who are making incredible impacts on their communities around the world. I am proud to introduce the first-ever congressional resolution honoring the legacy of the Harlem Renaissance Movement – to recognize, promote, and preserve the rich history and cultural impact of the Harlem Renaissance and to ensure Harlem’s legacy is forever remembered and celebrated for generations to come.”
