Opportunity: A Journal for Negro Life , founded by Charles S. Johnson and published monthly by the National Urban League from 1923 until 1949, was one of the first national periodicals by-and-for African Americans. In the pages of this invaluable Harem Renaissance resource are articles, essays, short stories, poems, plays and visual art by legendary Harlem Renaissance artists. The cover of this March 1927 issue is from a pastel drawing of Langston Hughes by modernist Winold Reiss. The original is in the Smithsonian's National Portrait Gallery.
