Garden Of Eden In Harlem

RACISM IN HARLEM


A friend forwarded this article--for all of you who might have missed the story on the news--here's what Harlem's gentrification really is...

Arnold Diaz's SHAME ON YOU has featured this story this week. For those of you who don't know the area, EDEN CAFE is located just 5 blocks south of 110th Street, the accepted southern border of HARLEM.

I have eaten in Eden myself several times, but NEVER AGAIN! On any given night you can find several Black contingents dining or having drinks. It seems our money is good enough as long as we're only in onesies and twosies. Otherwise... "Get Back"!

After you read the article below, do these two things:

1. CALL OR WRITE the owner of Eden Cafe to voice your feelings:

CLAUDE WARYNIAK
OWNER,
EDEN CAFE BAR
2728 Broadway, New York, NY 10025
PHONE: (212) 865-5565


2. PASS THIS EMAIL ALONG TO YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY WHO DON'T BELIEVE
RACISM IS STILL A MAJOR ISSUE IN NYC!
