Interests

Mart 125, formerly located in the heart of Harlem was an indoor market place that housed African vendors from all over the Diaspora. It was developed by government agencies to remove street vendors in the mid-1980's. Due to a host of politics, poor management and the redevelopment of Harlem, the Mart was forced to close down in 2002. The building is now up for biding and the vendors have either been fortunate enough to get their own store fronts in Harlem or are back to vending on the streets. Harlem's Mart 125: The American Dream is an in-depth analysis of the history of Mart 125 and how it correlates to the revitalization of 125th street, Harlem's main commercial hub. This story chronologically depicts the economic transition from the late 1960's to 125th street presently. By using Mart 125 and the people behind it, the market is used as a metaphor that examines the effects gentrification will have on the Harlem community. This is a story about a place that was considered a historical symbol, a historical landmark and a window that has revealed a land conquered. This is a story that documents the changing face of the most well known community in the world and its struggle to preserve its culture and legacy.
