Harlem, New York
Harlem long known as a major African American cultural and business center. in the 20th century it was heavly associated with black culture, but also crime and poverty, it is now experiencing a social and economic renaissance through gentrification in the late 1990s. This was driven by changing federal and city policies, including fierce crime-fighting and a concerted effort to develop the retail corridor on 125th Street. Im glad we stayed here, the history is off the hizz here.
Harlem is safe. We were walk home and around the neighbourhood in the earlier mornings from the City. people are friendly, I could ask for directions and they were never shy to have a conversation. everywhere you walk people try to sell you every thing on the streets - newport cigarette, underwear, perfume, shirts, food stamps etc…its all about the hustle on 125th Street.
the muslim population here is large and the religion is popular since Malcolm X
Nation of islam is slowly merging with mainstream islam here
