The common characteristic of Harlem Renaissance literature is that it includes African Americans as its main characters.

Explanation:

The Harlem Renaissance was the rebirth of black art in the community of African-Americans living in Harlem, New York during the 1920s.

Although it is sometimes said to include all of Upper Manhattan, traditionally Harlem is bordered by the south on East 96th Street, where the railroad track emerges from the tunnel beneath Park Avenue, and next to Central Park, to the west by Morningside Heights, 125th Street to the Hudson River, north on 155th Street, and east to the East River.

Jazz music, literature and painting stood out in a significant way among the artistic creations of the main components of this artistic movement.

At the beginning of the 1920s three key works showed the new African-American literary creativity. Harlem Shadows (1922) by Claude McKay, became one of the first African-American works published by a major national publishing house. Cane (1923), by Jean Toomer, is an experimental novel that combines poetry and prose to show the southern rural and northern urban life of black Americans. Finally, Confusion (1924), the first novel by Jessie Fauset, represents the life of the African-American middle class from the point of view of a woman.
