Mary Glenn Krause, Carla Foust, Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library at Yale University and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at https://www.pgdp.net "Fire!! : A quarterly devoted to the younger Negro artists, Volume 1, Number 1" is an African American literary magazine published in New York City in 1926 during the Harlem Renaissance. Founded by Wallace Thurman, Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, and others, this bold publication challenged older Black conventions by exploring controversial topics like homosexuality, prostitution, and color prejudice through vernacular language and realistic storytelling. The magazine's provocative content sparked outrage among established Black leaders and poor sales, while its headquarters ironically burned down shortly after releasing its only issue.
