explain the role that World War
I had on the birth of the Harlem Renaissance.

Answer:

Though we often discuss World War I through the lens of history, we occasionally do it through literature. When we do, we’ll invariably go to the famous trilogy of Hemingway, Faulkner and Fitzgerald – the authors most representative of America’s iconic Lost Generation. Their work is said to reflect a mood that emerged from the ashes of a war that, with its trail of carnage, left survivors around the world with a despairing vision of life, self and nation. The Conversation

The anxiety and hopelessness of the Lost Generation has become embedded in literary and cultural history. But for black artists, writers and thinkers, the war meant something entirely different: It spawned a transformation of the way African-Americans imagined themselves, their past and their future.

With Africa as a source of inspiration, a “New Negro” emerged out of the ruins of the Great War – not broken and disenchanted, but possessed with a new sense of self, one shaped from bold, unapologetically black models.

Denying an African Legacy

Before World War I, African-American literature depicted stoic, but constrained, black protagonists. They emulated European codes of class and respectability while rejecting any sort of African legacy or inheritance. In other words, they talked like white people, dressed like white people and accepted the narrative that white men were the source of America’s greatness.

From the most well-known 19th-century African-American writer, Frederick Douglass, to his less remembered contemporary, Alexander Crummell, literary black advocacy or racial uplift too often rested on this approach.

Still, in the years leading up to World War I, there were rumblings of the “New Negro” archetype. For example, in Paul Laurence Dunbar’s 1902 novel “The Sport of the Gods” and Pauline Hopkins’ serialized novel “Hagar’s Daughter,” we see restless, dissatisfied young people who have no desire to become shuffling, servile second-class citizens.

This defiance, however, would not become widespread in African-American literature until the end of the war.

A “New Negro” Emerges

Black soldiers abroad during World War I experienced a type of freedom and mobility unattainable back home. In cities from London to Paris, many, for the first time, could travel without the worry of being denied equal lodging accommodations or admission to entertainment venues.

Once they returned stateside, they became increasingly impatient with Jim Crow laws and codes of racial discrimination. Life, they realized, didn’t have to be this way. In a nation that was now half a century beyond slavery, the fever spread among a new generation of blacks.

If you pick up a metal ruler, it usually feels cold to your hand. A wood or plastic ruler will feel warmer. But if these rulers were all sitting on your desk, then they are all room temperature. So why does one feel colder than the others? It all comes down to a property of matter called conduction. Conduction  measures how well a material (such as metal, wood, or plastic) transfers energy. The more conductive a material is, the better it transfers energy. For example, good electrical conductors transfer electricity well. Good thermal conductors transfer thermal energy well. In class, you learned about thermal conduction. When two substances with different thermal energies touch, thermal energy is always transferred from the substance with more thermal energy to the substance with less thermal energy until the thermal energy in the two substances is equal. It’s kind of like the metal, glass, and plastic are soaking up as much thermal energy as they can from the water. Metal heats more quickly because it is a better conductor than plastic or glass: it can How will you do this? How will you keep thermal energy from transferring out  of your cooker? Images, right to left:  / Public Domain - publicdomainvectors soak up thermal energy more quickly than the others. But it only does this until it is the same temperature as the water. Let's consider the rulers again. How does conduction help explain why the metal feels colder? Well, your hands are at body temperature, about 37°C (98.6°F). They are kept warm by the blood in your veins and have more thermal energy than the rulers. The rulers are at room temperature, which is probably between 20 and 30°C. When you touch each ruler, they begin absorbing thermal energy from your hand. Since the metal is a better conductor, it will take your thermal energy more quickly than the plastic or wood. The experience of losing thermal energy makes your hand feel “cold”. What if instead of a metal ruler, you were touching a big metal table? It would feel cold for much longer because there is so much more metal. It would take much more thermal energy to warm up to the same temperature as your body, meaning it would transfer a lot more thermal energy from your hand. This would make your hand feel quite chilly! How long it takes an object to change temperature depends on both the number of molecules in a substance and the thermal conductivity of the material it is made of.In your solar cooker, you will want to transfer as much thermal energy as possible to the food.​
