I'm working on a writing discussion question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

From 1940 – 1960, the works of many African American writers illustrate the political and social trend for African Americans – from WWII to the Civil Rights Movement – from three primary lenses: realism, naturalism, and modernism. As described earlier, this “three-pronged rubric” is defined as follows:

Although these concepts are grouped together, define them in your own terms.

After creating your own definitions, consider what they mean. Do you believe that they can work together as a way of telling a story? If so, why? And if now, why not? You should use one (1) of the assigned readings from this module to exemplify your position. For example, you could consider the works by Ellison or Wright or Baldwin by looking for examples of any of the elements of realism, naturalism, or modernism in the actual narratives.https://archive.nytimes.com/www.nytimes.com/books/…
