“Beyond Black” A Poem By Martial

Posted on October 11, 2011 by Harlem World Magazine | Leave a comment

Who doesn’t want to be rich and famous?

You can do it without acting hanus.

Play a sport, study law,

perform music, professionally draw.

Keep it legal and off the streets.

You’ll stay out of jail, nor be deceased. Continue reading →

Harlem, No Longer Majority Black

Posted on January 6, 2010 by Harlem World Magazine | Leave a comment

Community

For nearly a century, Harlem has been synonymous with black urban America. Given its magnetic and growing appeal to younger black professionals and its historic residential enclaves and cultural institutions, the neighborhood’s reputation as the capital of black America seems unlikely to change soon.

But the neighborhood is in the midst of a profound and accelerating shift. In greater Harlem, which runs river to river, and from East 96th Street and West 106th Street to West 155th Street, blacks are no longer a majority of the population — a shift that actually occurred a decade ago, but was largely overlooked.

Obama’s Harlem Style

Posted on February 17, 2009 by Harlem World Magazine | Leave a comment

Fashion

It was Malcolm X who observed how,

“Of all our studies, history is best qualified to reward our research…”

and wow, do black Americans ever have some incredible saga to explore!

Quite recently there was none of us who held national elective office. Not until the 1960′s was there a single black character on the TV airwaves whose presence was as likely to inspire pride as to induce winces of shame. But this, we’re told, was yesterday.

Tall, tanned and terrifically photogenic, America has a brand new first family and they’re black. Our elegant First Lady has already appeared on the cover of Vogue. It’s a fashion magazine which has had comparatively little coverage of blacks over the decades. But so buoyant is the spirit of change in the land, that the smiling visage of Michelle Obama strikes most as nothing at all out of the ordinary. A new day has dawned, they say.
