Talk:The New Negro

Misattributed quote.
The quote attributed to Eric Walrond seems to be inaccurate. The quote does not appear in the work cited (the short story collection Tropic Death); instead, it seems to have come from this reference work: https://www.google.com/books/edition/Encyclopedia_of_the_Harlem_Renaissance/0L0ULjto_OEC?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=walrond+%22contemporary+black+leaders+inadequate+or+ineffective%22&pg=PT1824&printsec=frontcover

Furthermore, the reference work seems to be paraphrasing an article Walrond wrote in 1923, which is two or three years before the publication of The New Negro, suggesting that his comments are much more general than are relevant to this article (despite the article title including the phrase "the new negro" in it).
