‘High on the Hog’ features a love letter to Harlem. 14 vintage photos show what life was like in the historic neighborhood during the Harlem Renaissance.

According to History.com, the Harlem Renaissance, roughly from the 1910s to mid-1930s, sparked after World War I when many Black Americans fled Jim Crow-era racial discrimination in the South by moving north in the Great Migration. Black residents explored art, food, literature, theater, politics, and more in Harlem.

Over eight decades after the Harlem Renaissance ended, food historian and “High on the Hog” host Stephen Satterfield toured the famed neighborhood during season two.

“The move North created a cultural explosion that gave way to African American entrepreneurship and a new middle class,” Satterfield said.
