Answer 2
Answer:

"When the Negro Was in Vogue" by Langston Hughes, Here's a quote from his book that might help you out.

  • White people began to come to Harlem in droves. For several years they packed the expensive Cotton Club on Lenox Avenue. But I was never there, because the Cotton Club was a Jim Crow club for gangsters and monied whites. They were not cordial to Negro patronage, unless you were a celebrity like Bojangles. So Harlem Negroes did not like the Cotton Club and never appreciated its Jim Crow policy in the very heart of their dark community. Nor did ordinary Negroes like the growing influx of whites toward Harlem after sun- down, flooding the little cabarets and bars where formerly only colored people laughed and sang, and where now the strangers were given the best ringside tables to sit and stare at the Negro customers—like amusing animals in a zoo.

Hope this helps, have a BLESSED and wonderful day! As well as as a safe one! :-)

Helio

Answers

"Herodotus" is considered the "Father of History." This title is mostly due to his comprehensive history of the Peloponnesian War, which gained him extensive notoriety. 

Answer:

Herodotus

Explanation:

Herodotus of Halicarnassus was a Greek historian and geographer who lived between 484 and 425 BC. C., traditionally considered as the father of History in the western world and was the first to compose a reasoned and structured account of human actions.

He devoted part of his life to travel to obtain the information and materials that allowed him to write a work of great historical and literary value. However, he received severe criticism, including from his contemporaries, for including in his work anecdotes and digressions that, although they provided valuable information, had little to do with the object of study that had been proposed: the Persian struggles against Greeks
