The anchor's anthology gives the movement a headnote and prints McKay among others. It was a concentration of Black American writing in the nineteen twenties, and the anchor notes it faded in the nineteen thirties while leaving a lasting legacy.
In practice
A concentration in the nineteen twenties.
Where people slip
The anchor supplies the headnote.
