Captions available
The idea
The writing reached print through Black magazines, through anthologies, and through white patrons and publishers whose interest came with expectations about what Black writing should look like. The dependence became a subject inside the movement, and writers disagreed about how much it cost.
In practice
Patrons, magazines, and a price attached.
Where people slip
The disagreement over patronage is part of the record.
