POSTPONED: FILM: BloomFest Film Series Presents, "Harlem's Mart 125"
Saturday, December 19th
8:00pm
"Harlem's Mart 125: the American Dream" is a documentary film about the history of Mart 125 and how it correlates to the "revitalization" of 125th street, Harlem's main commercial sector. Director Rachelle Salnave-Gardner is planning to come all the way from Atlanta to help lead a discussion relevant to our community. Special guest, singer/songwriter, Jeremy James is planning to come down from NYC for a pre-screening set. Mart 125 is used as a metaphor which examines the plague of perplexities that surround this unique black community and its relationship with the plans of urban renewal from a commercial stand point.There will also be a healthy dialog about the changes happening in Columbia Heights.
