The Harlem Renaissance refers to an era of written and artistic creativity among African-Americans that occurred after World War I. The Harlem Renaissance was a celebration of African-American heritage expressed through an out pouring of art, literature, music and dance.
Ella Fitzgerald, Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, and Billie Holiday were all great musical artists to come out of the Harlem, Renaissance. The Great Depression was at least partly responsible for the end of the Harlem Renaissance as financial necessities became more important than artistic expression. It is certainly an era that African-Americans can be proud of and a time when a once poorly treated people, began to expect more from life. They became more vocal and expressive and they took charge of adding fun and excitement to their lifestyle.

Renaissance means "rebirth". The European Renaissance is the period in European history that followed the middle ages.The European Renaissance mainly focused on classical learning and values. The decline of the feudal system, made the European Renaissance a time of revival of classical learning and wisdom after a long period of cultural decline.

I personally think that the Harlem Renaissance was more important.........
