The South Side Writers Group (occasionally called South Side Writers' Group) was a circle of African-American writers and poets formed in the 1930s in Chicago, which included Richard Wright, Arna Bontemps, Margaret Walker, Fenton Johnson, Theodore Ward, Garfield Gordon, Frank Marshall Davis, Julius Weil, Dorothy Sutton, Russell Marshall, Robert Davis, Marion Perkins, Arthur Bland, Fern Gayden, and Alberta Sims .
 Consisting of some twenty authors, the group championed the New Realism movement and Social realism.
 The group met at the Abraham Lincoln Centre on South Cottage Grove Avenue near the Bronzeville District.
Beverly Jenkins (born 1951, Detroit) is an American author of historical and contemporary romance novels with a particular focus on 19th century African-American life.
 Jenkins was a 2013 NAACP Image Award nominee and, in 1999, was voted one of the Top 50 Favorite African-American writers of the 20th century by the African American Literature Book Club.
 Jenkins's historical romances are set during a period of African-American history that she believes is often overlooked.
 This made it difficult to break into publishing because publishers weren't sure what to do with stories that involved African-Americans but not slavery.
The Organization of Black American Culture (OBAC) was conceived during the era of the Civil Rights Movement by Hoyt W. Fuller as a collective of African-American writers, artists, historians, educators, intellectuals, community activists, and others.
 Founded on Southside Chicago in May 1967 by a group of Black intellectuals that included Fuller (editor of "Negro Digest"), the poet Conrad Kent Rivers, and Gerald McWorter (later Abdul Alkalimat), OBAC aimed to coordinate artistic support in the struggle for freedom, justice and equality of opportunity for African Americans.
 The organization had workshops for visual arts, theater, and writing, and produced two publications: a newsletter, "Cumbaya", and the magazine "Nommo".
The Signifying Monkey: A Theory of African-American Literary Criticism is a work of literary criticism and theory by American scholar Henry Louis Gates Jr. first published in 1988.
 The book traces the folkloric origins of the African-American cultural practice of “signifying” and uses the concept of Signifyin(g) to analyze the interplay between texts of prominent African-American writers, specifically Richard Wright, Ralph Ellison, Zora Neale Hurston and Ishmael Reed.
Frank Marshall Davis (December 31, 1905 – July 26, 1987) was an American journalist, poet, political and labor movement activist, and businessman.
Louis S. Peterson (June 17, 1922 – April 27, 1998) was a playwright, actor, screenwriter, and professor.
 He was an American playwright and the first African-American playwright to have a dramatic play produced on Broadway.
 He was also one of the first African-American writers to be nominated for an Emmy Award.
Henry Louis "Skip" Gates Jr. (born September 16, 1950, in Keyser, West Virginia) is an American literary critic, teacher, historian, filmmaker and public intellectual who currently serves as the Alphonse Fletcher University Professor and Director of the Hutchins Center for African and African American Research at Harvard University.
 He has discovered what are considered the first books by African-American writers, both of them women, and has published extensively on appreciating African-American literature as part of the Western canon.
The American Society of African Culture (AMSAC) was an organization of African-American writers, artists, and scholars.
 The society was founded as a result of the Congress of Negro Writers and Artists in 1956 based on the idea of the French "".
 In June 1957, the American Society of African Culture (AMSAC) was officially founded by five African American intellectuals.
 During its heyday in the early 1960s, AMSAC had around four hundred members.
 One of the main goals of the organisation was to expose African Americans to their African heritage.
 This aim was pursued through organising exhibitions, lectures, music performances, and conferences in the United States (primarily New York) and Africa (occasionally).
 AMSAC sponsored a two-day festival in Lagos, Nigeria in December 1961.
 After 1967, AMSAC's membership sharply declined after it was named as one of the organisations that was funded by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).
African-American literature is the body of literature produced in the United States by writers of African descent.
 It begins with the works of such late 18th-century writers as Phillis Wheatley.
 Before the high point of slave narratives, African-American literature was dominated by autobiographical spiritual narratives.
 The genre known as slave narratives in the 19th century were accounts by people who had generally escaped from slavery, about their journeys to freedom and ways they claimed their lives.
 The Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s was a great period of flowering in literature and the arts, influenced both by writers who came North in the Great Migration and those who were immigrants from Jamaica and other Caribbean islands.
 African-American writers have been recognized by the highest awards, including the Nobel Prize to Toni Morrison.
 Among the themes and issues explored in this literature are the role of African Americans within the larger American society, African-American culture, racism, slavery, and social equality.
 African-American writing has tended to incorporate oral forms, such as spirituals, sermons, gospel music, blues, or rap.
The Chicago Black Renaissance (also known as the Black Chicago Renaissance) was a creative movement that blossomed out of the Chicago Black Belt on the city's South Side and spanned the 1930s and 1940s before a transformation in art and culture in the mid-1950s through the turn of the century.
 The movement included such famous African-American writers as Richard Wright, Margaret Walker, Gwendolyn Brooks, Arna Bontemps, and Lorraine Hansberry, as well as musicians Thomas A. Dorsey, Louis Armstrong, and Earl Hines.
 During the Great Migration, which brought tens of thousands of African-Americans to Chicago's South Side, African-American writers, artists, and community leaders began promoting racial pride and a new black consciousness, similar to that of the Harlem Renaissance in New York City.
 Unlike the Harlem Renaissance, the Chicago Black Renaissance did not receive the same amount of publicity on a national setting.
 This was due to several factors, including the lower profile participants in the movement, the lack of wealthy patrons investing in the movement, and a geographical distance from New York as a publishing center.
