This was a pivotal turning point for the former slaves to the white man. This renaissance finally allowed many of the poor and rural black communities to have a collective voice and make a significant change. Authors also helped by putting major books and poems out into America for everyone to read and learn about how the black culture operated and thrived. These authors, such as Hughes and Hurston, were single representations to put alongside the Harlem Renaissance that allow others to have a picture of what the actual black life was all about. It was no longer about slavery or persecution from the white people, but instead African Americans found a voice they used to give them an even greater freedom. African Americans showed everyone that they were no longer beneath those who forced them to tend their lands, but were instead equal and quite possibly could be better than many of them.

Notwithstanding, in order for one to achieve something in life, it may require he/she to be brave.

Although most men who have a family would agree to keep secret or lie in order to keep their jobs, licenses, and houses, Thomas refused to keep secret or lie to the people. In fact, to show his braveness he stated that “It is also my duty as the man of science to share what I feel with the public” (You Tube Broadway “An Enemy of the People Face of one”). Meanwhile Peter got scared the whole situation might ruin his reputation, he told Thomas “the only reason he’s doing that is for the good of the town because without morals or authorities there can be no government”.
