The Delany Sisters and a tour through Harlem

Bessie's dentist office was pretty close to Strivers Row, which African Americans started making their homes in 1919. Many doctors, lawyers, and musicians lived here. The neighborhood was given the name "Strivers Row" because of the lives of the people who lived there, which I find quite interesting. While I was looking through the site of the people who made Harlem what it was, I saw the New York Black Yankees, I remember Bessie and Sadie talking about how they occasionally went to the Yankees game, and it never occured to me that there was a separation there and that there were the Black Yankees, which looking back at it now makes sense, but I still find it interesting.
