They made him feel that he was not merely an unfortunate accident of birth, but that he belonged definitely to a race weighed, tested, and poised in the universal scheme. They inspired him with confidence in them... Even though they stood bewildered before the imposing bigness of white things, apparently unaware of the invaluable worth of their own, they were naturally defended by the richness of their fundamental racial values."

(2006, Oct) Paper presented at the annual meeting of the American Studies Association from http://www.allacademic.com/meta/p114398_index.html Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Listening Diasporally: Claude McKay’s Ditch Carmen as a Critique of Opera and its Listeners This paper will consider the implications of music in Claude McKay’s Banjo as a critical site of national and disasporic representation. Critics have noticed that Banjo explicitly and titularly revalues the lowly instrumentalist (Lincoln Agrippa Daily is Banjo’s given name), the easy accessibility, and pagan freedom of the banjo. In Banjo there are different musical genres and something more than a sociology of music that would rehabilitate American slave culture and restore while augmenting its African roots. Listening diasporically, which is to say for the mix of cultures and with the canaille in Marseilles, McKay is interested in criticizing the bourgeois reception and the national character of opera as well as—or even as a kind—folk music. But McKay does not celebrate music or even diasporic vagabondage in a folkish ways; instead he disturbs the categories by which musical performance and reception promote nationalism and racism.

Claude McKay gifted poetry made him one of the elite poets of the Harlem Renaissance era. McKay was one of the most prominent figures in the Harlem Renaissance not only for his poetry but other literary writings and political views. One of his influential poems to begin his recognition in the world of poetry was: "If We Must Die" which was published in the Liberator in 1919 making it the very first poems initiating the tone, subject, and matter of the literary movement. McKay was also known as more than a natural poet; he was a lyrical by nature. He thought in rhapsodies and felt in meter, merging his soul with the present moment and tied it to race. White Jamaican patrons financed him to go to New York, upon his arrival, at first he did not co-exist well with African-Americans. McKay criticized African-Americans on the political issues during this time regarding the best ways to address the community for advancement and opportunity.
