The March 1, 1925 issue of Survey Graphic was a special issue dedicated to "Harlem: Mecca of The New Negro." It was guest-edited by Alain Locke, and was later expanded and reprinted as an independent book as The New Negro: an Interpretation later in 1925. The special issue contained numerous illustrations by Winold Reiss, and essays by Alain Locke, James Weldon Johnson, Charles S. Johnson, Rudolph Fisher, W.A. Domingo, W.E.B. Du Bois, Albert C. Barnes, Arthur A. Schomburg, Melville J. Herskovits, Walter F. White, Eunice Roberta Hunton, Elise Johnson McDougald, and others.
