Yes, Jean Toomer was a key figure in the Harlem Renaissance, a cultural movement that took place in the 1920s and 1930s in Harlem, New York. Toomer's work, including his influential book "Cane," which features the poem "Fern," is often associated with the Harlem Renaissance for its exploration of African American identity and experience.
Marcus Garvey, Duke Ellington, and Langston Hughes were only a few of the contributors.
