Summary
The A and C trains brought thousands of Southern and Caribbean migrants to Bedford Stuyvesant during the 1st and 2nd waves of the Great Migration. Fulton Street remains the primary commercial artery for the community, however the community has changed.
Maya Congee Café is across the street at 1013 Fulton Street, if you would like a snack prior to the walk which begins at 1pm.
We will walk from Jitu Weusi Plaza, though the streets that produced luminaries such as Max Roach, Randy Weston, Jitu Weusi, Judge William Thompson, Bertram Baker, Ernesta Procope, Bethann Hardison, Roxie Roker, Annette Robinson, Hattie Carthan, Elsie Richardson, the women of the United Order of The Tents to name a few and the multitudes who labored in obscurity.
