Questions: What was the goal of the New Negro Movement? a. It encouraged African-Americans to become politically active and racially conscious. b. It was a revolt for equal treatment of African Americans

The answer is a. It encouraged African-Americans to become politically active and racially conscious.

The New Negro Movement, also known as the Harlem Renaissance, was a cultural, social, and artistic explosion centered in Harlem, New York, during the early 20th century. One of its primary goals was to foster a new sense of racial pride and identity among African-Americans. It encouraged them to become politically active, culturally aware, and racially conscious, promoting the idea of the "New Negro" who was assertive and proud of their heritage.

While the New Negro Movement did advocate for equal rights and sought to challenge racial discrimination, it was not primarily a revolt in the traditional sense. Instead, it focused on cultural expression and intellectual engagement as means to achieve social change and improve the status of African-Americans in society.
