A Walk Through Harlem-1


from the channel thirteen pbs site which has many great interactive features

Harlem has had such a profound influence on our society," says David Hartman, an award-winning documentary filmmaker and popular television personality. "From the civil rights movement to literature, music, and art to spiritual life, Harlem's legacy is one of great human passion."
Architectural historian and New York City expert Barry Lewis says, "Everyone has heard of Harlem, but most people don't realize it's really one of New York's great undiscovered treasures. It's a community that is not just about black history -- it's about American history."
A WALK THROUGH HARLEM touches only on West and Central Harlem; as Barry Lewis explains, the Hispanic riches of East Harlem merit a separate tour of their own.
