Honoring the legacy of the Harlem Renaissance, a cultural, social, and political movement in American history.

HRES 94 is a symbolic House resolution (introduced February 2023) that formally honors the Harlem Renaissance - a cultural movement spanning the 1910s to 1930s. It recognizes the movement’s role in redefining Black identity through literature, music, art, and political thought, highlighting figures like Langston Hughes, Duke Ellington, and organizations such as the NAACP. The resolution does not create new laws or policies; it solely commemorates the movement’s historical significance, its influence on civil rights, and its lasting impact on American culture, while affirming support for preserving Harlem’s cultural legacy.
