A number of important similarities between the Harlem Renaissance in America (in the 1920s and 1930s) and the European Renaissance (in the 14th-16th centuries) may be highlighted. First, both celebrated individual experiences while also seeking (and often finding) new ways of understanding and unifying communities. Second, both were as controversial as they were inspiring, with many outside observers positively moved and yet many others skeptical or critical. Third, both had temporary existences yet are enduringly influential in many respects.

∙ 11y agoNegritude Movement is a literary and political movement founded in Paris in the 1930s by a group of students from the French Caribbean and Africa. The founding members, Aimé Césaire, Léopold Senghor, and Léon Damas hoped to eliminate the barriers between black students from the various French colonies. They were not only concerned with the cooperation between Blacks within the group, but also with the well-being and unity of the black race.
In the early 1900s, particularly in the 1920s, African-American literature, art, music, and dance began to flourish in Harlem, a section of New York City. This African-American cultural movement became known as "The New Negro Movement" and later as the Harlem Renaissance. More than a literary movement, the Harlem Renaissance redefined African-American expression. African-Americans were encouraged to celebrate their heritage. The main factors contributing to the development of the Harlem Renaissance were African-American urban migration, and the rise of radical African-American intellectuals. The negritude movement and the Harlem renaissance are both considered to be a common ground in the black experience.

What was the difference between the Harlem renaissance art and negritude art?
A very interesting question, and an important one. The negritude movement came about as a result of negritude writers meeting black American intellectuals in Paris, the black American writers including langston Hughes, Claude McKay and Countee Cullen. These intellectuals found what they considered to be a common ground in the black experience, and the negritude movement was born. So to answer the question, first of all, the Harlem Renaissance preceded negritude. The negritude writers Cesaire, Senghor and Damas were inspired by the black American art movement. The Harlem Renaissance was set into motion by the concept of The New Negro. It must also be noted that there were several important women, the Nardal sisters, who actually introduced the black American art to Cesaire and the others. The Nardal sisters are not given their due, but they are the ones greatly responsible for the negritude movement. Hope this helps.
