Hello and welcome back to New York City. 00:00:00
Today we're going to be looking at one of the city's most influential and culturally 00:00:16
rich neighborhoods, Harlem. 00:00:20
Harlem is a large neighborhood in northern Manhattan. 00:00:25
Since the jazz age of the 1920s, Harlem has become the cultural center of the African 00:00:29
American community in New York. 00:00:34
I'm with Carolyn, the president of Welcome to Harlem. 00:00:39
Carolyn, can you tell me a little bit about the African American experience here in Harlem? 00:00:42
I believe for the last 20 years the African American experience has been really enhanced 00:00:47
due to the fact that we're going through a second Harlem renaissance attributed to real 00:00:52
estate. 00:00:56
And they're starting to really enjoy the community once again because of that. 00:00:57
Can you explain what you mean by second Harlem renaissance? 00:01:01
The first Harlem renaissance was in the 1920s and the 1930s. 00:01:03
It was attributed to music, dance, writing, and arts and stuff like that. 00:01:07
And then Harlem had a small downturn and now we're rolling back. 00:01:14
So these brownstones that people invested in many years ago, in the mid-1980s, the 20 00:01:18
to 30,000 have gone for millions of dollars today. 00:01:24
What makes this community so special? 00:01:28
I think it's the diversity of living in Harlem. 00:01:31
We have many ethnic groups that live here. 00:01:33
We enjoy each other's culture, each other's food and stuff like that. 00:01:36
And we're just one big happy family and it's just a lively neighborhood to live in. 00:01:39
Where should I go today? 00:01:45
Stop number one, Apollo Theater. 00:01:47
There's no way you can make a trip here without going to the Apollo. 00:01:50
Stop number two, I would say Stryver's Row Historical District. 00:01:53
And then stop number three, Moles Barbershop, because that's where you get all the juicy 00:01:56
information. 00:02:00
I'm in the St. Nicholas Historic District. 00:02:03
Successful African Americans moved here in the 1920s and 1930s, making the area more 00:02:05
popular and giving it the nickname Stryver's Row. 00:02:11
This area is notable for its late 19th century urban design and a fine example of New York 00:02:15
City architecture. 00:02:21
Hearing gospel music performed live in Harlem is one of the best musical experiences you 00:02:24
can have in New York City. 00:02:29
You can hear it in many African American churches in the area. 00:02:30
This is the First Corinthian Baptist Church. 00:02:43
Members of the public are welcome to attend services here. 00:02:46
Some of the best barbershops in New York City are found in Harlem. 00:02:56
Over the years, barbershops have been a source of community and economic opportunity in black 00:03:00
neighborhoods. 00:03:04
I'm here at Denny Moe's Superstar Barbershop for a cut. 00:03:05
I'm here with the legend himself, Denny Moe, here for a superstar haircut. 00:03:11
Denny Moe, how long have you been here? 00:03:15
I've been here about ten years, ten years and counting. 00:03:18
Ten years? 00:03:22
Ten years. 00:03:23
So have you seen any changes in the neighborhood since you've been here? 00:03:24
I've seen major changes, man. 00:03:27
When I first came here, it was like it was falling apart, you know what I mean? 00:03:29
But it's been put together pretty good now. 00:03:34
You have people coming from all over the world to be right here in Harlem. 00:03:38
Harlem is the place, the Mecca. 00:03:41
When I first came back to Harlem, it was a love affair. 00:03:42
Besides cutting hair, what other purpose does your barbershop serve in the community? 00:03:46
We are definitely embedded in the community. 00:03:50
When you say community, you say Denny Moe. 00:03:53
When you say Denny Moe, you say community. 00:03:55
That's how it is. 00:03:57
It's synonymous, man. 00:03:58
We do back-to-school drives for the kids. 00:03:59
We give them books and book bags and send them to school with fresh haircuts. 00:04:02
We also do scholarships to kids transitioning from high school to college. 00:04:08
And we just do a lot. 00:04:13
And this is a family business, right? 00:04:16
This is a family business, that's right. 00:04:17
You got me, you know, the God, you know what I mean? 00:04:19
You got my son over here. 00:04:23
His name is Denny Moe Jr. 00:04:24
We're here. 00:04:26
We're doing it, man. 00:04:27
Well, you know, we're going to finish up here, but we'll see you next time in Boston. 00:04:28
We'll see you next time. 00:04:38
... 00:04:39
