But as this book shows us, Harlem is far more culturally and economically diverse than its caricature suggests: through extensive fieldwork and interviews, John L. Jackson reveals a variety of social networks and class stratifications, and explores how African Americans interpret and perform different class identities in their everyday behavior.African AmericansNew York (State)New YorkHarlem (New York, N.Y.)HistoryHarlem (New York, N.Y.)Social life and customsharlem, race, class, blackness, african american, neighborhood, community, poverty, diversity, history, networks, stratification, identity, place, culture, slum, ghetto, apollo, professionals, stereotype, performance, embodiment, sociology, urban, income, wealth, economics, nonfiction, anthropology, perception, bougie, education, boundaries.African Americans305.896073974.7/1974.71Jackson John L34109MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910792325803321Harlemworld3869434UNINA
