But for Janie Crawford, it inspired an unexpected homecoming. So begins Zora Neale Hurston's acclaimed novel \"Their Eyes Were Watching God,\" about a Black woman's quest for love and agency. Tanya Boucicaut dives into this classic of the Harlem Renaissance. [Directed by Tomás Pichardo-Espaillat, narrated by Safia Elhillo, music by Cem Misirlioglu].\n
