Two famous writers that encouraged racial pride were W.E.B Du Bois and Alain Locke. Du Boise wrote about racism toward African Americans and reflected the problems they faced in the 20th century. Du Bois believed that education was imperative for blacks to associate themselves with, encouraging racial pride for themselves. Du Bois was one of the first African American leaders to inquire for complete equal rights towards African Americans. His writings essentially brought forward racial pride by reconstructing how blacks thought about themselves. Du Bois inspired blacks and was a leader and voice for African Americans in the Harlem Renaissance in the first steps toward equal rights. Alain Locke was also a philosopher and a writer like Du Bois and used his ideas of equal rights to also inspire African Americans to claim equal rights. Alain published an encouraging book called The New Negro and once it was published its affects made whites take African American writing seriously. Both W.E.B Du Bois and Alain Locke were inspirational and motivating figures to African Americans during the Harlem Renaissance and are known for developing the begging of racial pride during that
