Descriere magazin:
In
Blood Relations,
Irma Watkins-Owens focuses on the complex interaction of African Americans and African Caribbeans in
Harlem during the first decades of the 20th century. Between
1900 and
1930, 40,000
Caribbean immigrants settled in New York City and joined with African Americans to create the unique ethnic community of
Harlem.
Watkins-Owens confronts issues of
Caribbean immigrant and black American relations, placing their interaction in the context of community formation. She draws the reader into a cultural milieu that included the radical tradition of stepladder speaking; Marcus Garvey\'s contentious leadership; the underground numbers operations of
Caribbean immigrant entrepreneurs; and the literary renaissance and emergence of black journalists. Through interviews, census data, and biography,
Watkins-Owens shows how immigrants and southern African American migrants settled together in railroad flats and brownstones, worked primarily at service occupations, often lodged with relatives or home people, and strove to make it in New York.
