How did South Carolinians contribute to the Harlem Renaissance?

Former South Carolina governor Ben Tillman wrote a charter for Harlem, which organized its neighborhood council.

Ben Robertson, a South Carolina journalist, wrote an article on the Harlem Renaissance that appeared in Life magazine.

Several South Carolinian artists, such as William H. Johnson, took an active and vital role in the movement.

The South Carolina architect Eartha Kitt designed many of Harlem's most notable structures and buildings.

South Carolinians also contributed to the Harlem Renaissance through their support and patronage of African American artists, writers, musicians, and intellectuals. They helped to create a welcoming and nurturing environment for African American creativity to flourish in Harlem. Additionally, many South Carolinians traveled to Harlem to experience the culture and art of the Renaissance first-hand, further promoting and spreading awareness of the movement.
