""Black city in the heart of a white city": the study of the African-American civilization of Harlem is intimately linked to that of the history of New York and of the entire black community. The phenomenon is approached from a triple point of view: a historical approach retracing the process of urbanization which led to population displacements and the birth of a social stratification conducive to class antagonisms; an analysis of original cultural developments, theater in particular; finally a study socio-psychological analysis of the population through the various characteristic types of the slum or the ghetto. Documents come to illustrate the various characteristic types of inhabitants of Harlem or person who worked there.". Seller Inventory # ABE-1683449305950
