Walking Tour: Harlem Renaissance, Women and Civil Rights

The very existence of Harlem, an African American enclave in the midst of America's shimmering Manhattan metropolis, is a radical statement. Because of its diversity, attracting people of African descent, from not only rural America but also the Caribbean and South America, created a vast cultural and informed community in numbers greater then any other American city. The tour will cover how this critical mass supported political thought and social activism through their churches and civic organizations.
