"Economic growth was indeed the most decisive force in the shaping of attitudes and

prosperity the world has ever known.'"

"The Whites who read that issue of the Survey Graphic became aware that in Harlem, the
largest Negro city in the world, there existed a group interested in the fine arts, creative
literature, and classical music. So, well-meaning, vapid [dull] Whites from downtown New
York came by bus, subway, or in limousines, to see for themselves these Negroes who wrote
poetry and fiction and painted pictures.
"Of course, said these pilgrims, it couldn't approach the creative results of Whites, but as a
novelty, well, it didn't need standards. The very fact that these Blacks had the temerity to
