About This Lesson
What does home mean to you? Is it just a place you live, or something deeper—a space where you feel safe, loved, and connected? In this unit, we’ll explore how writers and artists have answered that question, especially during the Harlem Renaissance, a time when African American voices reshaped literature, music, and culture.
By the end of the unit, you’ll move from being a reader to being a writer. Using what you’ve learned, you’ll create your own informative research essay that explains your perspective on home and connects it to the voices we’ve studied.
