How did Claude McKay get involved and contribute to the Harlem Renaissance?

[Most famous of those is Home to Harlem; it won the Harmon Gold Award for Literature] [Harlem Shadows was basically the 1st book of the Harlem Renaissance] [Most famous poem: "If We Must Die", published during the "Red Summer", a period of intense racial violence against black people in Anglo-American societies."]
He was one of the first to really write about the 'black experience.' He was "proud of his race and with no disposition to apologize for his colour"
"The Liberator [a magazine he worked on] was a group magazine. The list of contributing editors was almost as exciting to read as the contributions themselves. There was a freeness and a bright new beauty in those contributions, pictorial and literary, that thrilled. And altogether, in their entirety, they were implicit of a penetrating social criticism which did not in the least overshadow their novel and sheer artistry. I rejoiced in the thought of the honour of appearing among the group."
