=='''The Crisis''': A Record of the Darker Race==

===Introduction===
This magazine is a direct representation of the varying struggles that African-Americans went through in the early 20th century. Through the issues that the Modernist Journals Project offers, we can see the pain, tragedy, and overall suffering that was caused in our country during World War 1. Before World War 1, the main focus of this magazine was to share stories of discrimination that African-Americans were still going through. Most of them were set free without any kind of education. Around the time that WWI started, part of the focus switched to how the war was affecting the lives of many, but how they were still facing discrimination. This magazine is illustrated through editorial articles, opinion-based essays, detailed pictures, or drawings in the earlier years, and even the advertisements found at the end of every issue.
