The intellectual and cultural expansion of the 1920s known as the Harlem Renaissance deeply enriched American society. Recently freed from slavery, black Americans finally had an opportunity to freely express themselves even though they continued to face many hardships, including segregation and poverty. Through main text that features annotated quotes from primary sources and historical photographs, readers learn about the contributions people of color made to art, literature, and music in the 1920s. In-depth sidebars connect these past achievements with those of the present. Discussion questions ask readers to think critically about the impact of the Harlem Renaissance.

Every four years, presidential elections renew the longstanding debate about whether the Electoral College is a beneficial or detrimental part of the voting process. Some people believe the popular vote should be sufficient. Others fear this would result in a president being elected without a clear majority. Understanding how the Electoral College works and formulating an opinion about it is a key part of becoming an informed voter. With the help of full-color photographs and informative fact boxes, this volume allows the next generation of voters to form and support their own opinions about this prominent system.
