The Latest Articles From The HarlemAmerica Newsroom
January in the HarlemAmerica Newsroom opens the year with stories rooted in legacy, cultural leadership, and forward vision. We begin by honoring Arturo Alfonso Schomburg, whose lifelong commitment to preserving Black history laid the intellectual foundation for Harlem itself, reminding us that memory is both resistance and responsibility. From there, we turn to movement and mastery as Dance Theatre of Harlem enters 2026 with a bold season that reclaims classical ballet through Black musicality, innovation, and global influence, proving Harlem’s creative institutions continue to shape the future of the arts. Music and activism converge in our profile of Common, tracing his evolution from conscious rapper to cultural architect whose work bridges Chicago, Harlem, and national movements for justice and community empowerment. Rounding out the month, we spotlight Cynthia Erivo, whose career across theatre, film, and music reflects a quiet revolution—one built on vulnerability, voice, and intentional representation—while affirming Harlem as a spiritual and creative home for modern Black artistry.
