Reviews
Historians will find it a perceptive orchestration of individuals and movements, and students will find inspiration to grapple with the persistence of structural racism and to assert and expand individual and community rights., A fine-grained account of community politics, Whose Harlem Is This, Anyway? is a welcome alternative to accounts of the New Negro era that focus only on the arts and prominent leaders. . . . Through meticulous research and vivid storytelling, King argues that the activism associated with later eras had roots in battles for Harlem tenants rights, workers rights, and consumers rights, and for freedom from overzealous reformers and policing based on white stereotypes rather than concern for the communitys safety., "A fine-grained account of community politics, Whose Harlem Is This, Anyway? is a welcome alternative to accounts of the New Negro era that focus only on the arts and prominent leaders. . . .
