Harlem

Tour includes a two and a half hours walk to revisit important historical moments in situ and bring new eyes to local architecture, focused mostly on the early 20th century to today. The tour brings to life interracial histories of labor movements, halal food, anti-colonialism, and the prolific life of el-Hajj Malik el-Shabazz (Malcolm X). We begin at the Adam Clayton Powell Statue at 125th Street and Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Blvd, rain or shine.

Wall Street

Tour includes a two hour walk to learn about the earliest Muslims in New York City, from African enslavement in Dutch New Amsterdam, to a Sudanese missionary, and a forgotten Young Turk mosque. We begin in the plaza south of Bowling Green Park, right outside the 4/5 Bowling Green subway station and in front of the National Museum of the American Indian, rain or shine.

Donate Your Ticket

The tour is kept free to ensure it is financially accessible and to encourage tour participants to support local business. Many who are able have asked to pay for the experience - which is great.  In lieu of a ticket, I ask those who are able to make a donation to Brotherhood-Sistersol in Harlem. The organization, founded in 1995, “provides comprehensive, holistic and long-term support services to youth who range in age from eight to twenty-two” through local programming and national outreach work. [NB: Brotherhood-Sistersol has no affiliation with the tour]
