Falconmaster · Answer

I only know about Armstrong @JustSaiyan

JustSaiyan · Answer

Jessie Fauset was a poet, so not her.

JustSaiyan · Answer

Alain Locke was the leader of the Harlem Resistance, so it could be him, but I don't think so.

JustSaiyan · Answer

Louis Armstrong is one

JustSaiyan · Answer

So is Bessie Smith

JustSaiyan · Answer

Duke Ellington, of course.

JustSaiyan · Answer

James Weldon Johnson might be one. He wrote songs, but I don't recall him preforming anything.
