On Saturday, June 21st in Marcus Garvey Park starting at 10 AM hundreds of Harlemites will take to the streets to voice their opposition to ethnic displacement and corporate centered development sweeping throughout Harlem.

The rapid transformation of Harlem through zoning and rezoning encompassing East, Central and West Harlem without a doubt has and will continue to displace thousands of local residents and small businesses.

  • Question? What are your black politicians who represent Harlem doing about this travesty of gentrification or better yet giving away the damn community. Nothing.

  • "Hi, my name is Ronald J Lewis. I'm a filmmaker currently working on a documentary about Gentrification in Harlem. I wanted to ask you if I could use this footage for my film. I plan to release the film in 2010 and I guarantee that you'll receive a credit for the film."

  • i like that line "harlem is not for sale"

  • okay - just to clarify - i didn't make that comment. My friend and roommate did under my account name. I haven't even watched this video and I just saw that I'd commented! So give me a chance to form my own opinion and then I'll comment. Sorry about that. Vanessa you get a spanking if you read this lol.

  • Besides, Harlem doesn't belong to just one type of person. I noticed the very clever addition of the outline of the African continent. It doesn't just belong to people of African descent; it belongs to anyone who wants to move there. I have lived in East Harlem for years and I am pleased with the so-called "gentrification." It has become safer, cleaner and overall more pleasant. I say keep it up!!!

  • stop whining!!
