In the 1970s, a lack of community investment resulted in a large number of people leaving Harlem, a well-known New York City neighborhood in northern Manhattan.在20世纪70年代，由于社区投资不足，导致大量居民离开了哈莱姆，这是位于曼哈顿北部的纽约市著名社区。Nearly 50,000 people, about a third of the area's population, left to escape violence, crime and poor living conditions. Among those who left was LeeSandra Moore's mother who moved to the state of Virginia. “It was a scary time,” said Moore, now 52 and still living in Harlem. “I couldn't blame her for that.”大约有五万人，约占该地区人口的三分之一，离开了这里以逃避暴力、犯罪和恶劣的生活条件。LeeSandra Moore的母亲就是其中一员，她搬到了弗吉尼亚州。现年52岁的Moore仍然住在哈莱姆，她说：“那是一个可怕的时期，我不能责怪她。”Those who stayed were mostly poor, Black families. They lived through unrest that followed the 1964 killing of an unarmed Black teenager and the killings of Black leader Malcolm X in 1965 and Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. in 1968.那些留下来的人大多是贫穷的黑人家庭。他们经历了1964年一名手无寸铁的黑人少年被杀后，以及1965年黑人领袖马尔科姆·X和1968年马丁·路德·金牧师被杀后的动乱。News reports described Harlem as a “sinking ship.”新闻报道将哈莱姆形容为一艘“正在下沉的船”。Percy Sutton was president of the local Manhattan government at the time. As the city's highest-ranking Black official, he knew Harlem needed a lift and started a festival called Harlem Day in 1974.当时，珀西·萨顿是曼哈顿当地政府的主席。作为该市级别最高的黑人官员，他知道哈莱姆需要振兴，于是于1974年创办了一个名为“哈莱姆日”的节日。Sutton called up elected officials. He gathered actors, like Sidney Poitier and Ruby Dee, entertainers, including Tito Puente and Max Roach, and the poet Maya Angelou to celebrate the first Harlem Day. It honored Harlem's history and shows how the neighborhood became known as "Black Mecca” or the center of Black arts, culture and businesses.萨顿联系了当选官员。他召集了演员，如西德尼·波蒂埃和鲁比·迪，以及表演者，包括蒂托·普恩特和马克斯·罗奇，还有诗人玛雅·安杰卢，共同庆祝了首个哈莱姆日。这个节日纪念了哈莱姆的历史，并展示了这个社区如何成为“黑人麦加”或黑人艺术、文化和商业中心的。“It was such a successful day,” said Lloyd Williams — one of Harlem Day's co-founders and the current president of the Greater Harlem Chamber of Commerce — that it became a week-long yearly event called Harlem Week.“那是一个非常成功的日子，”Lloyd Williams说道，他是哈莱姆日的联合创始人之一，也是现任大哈莱姆商会的主席。这个活动变成了一年一度的周活动，称为哈莱姆周。This year, Harlem Week celebrated its 50th anniversary with 18 days filled with free programming.今年，哈莱姆周庆祝了其50周年纪念，共进行了为期18天的免费活动。The celebration included food, Broadway performances, an Apollo Hour, and a tribute to entertainer Harry Belafonte. It offered financial education and career training, and for children, back-to-school backpacks.庆祝活动包括美食、百老汇演出、阿波罗时光以及对表演者哈里·贝拉方特的致敬。还提供了财务教育和职业培训，为孩子们提供了返校背包。One important part of Harlem Week was an effort to deal with Harlem's long-standing health crises. Medical volunteers checked blood pressure and tested for cancer and diabetes. People learned about drug use, HIV/AIDS and healthy aging.哈莱姆周的一个重要部分是解决哈莱姆长期存在的健康危机。医疗志愿者测量血压，并进行癌症和糖尿病筛查。人们还了解了药物使用、艾滋病和健康老龄化知识。Rev. Al Sharpton leads the National Action Network in Harlem. He said, "Harlem Week has been the constant line through the last 50 years of America's most historic Black neighborhood."艾尔·夏普顿牧师领导了哈莱姆的全国行动网络。他说：“哈莱姆周是过去50年来美国最具历史意义的黑人社区的一条恒久线索。”Organizers and people say Harlem Week has brought new life to the area. The once-deserted neighborhood is now home to restored buildings, new businesses, and immigrants. The streets are filled with jazz, reggae, R&B, and gospel music traditions.组织者和当地人表示，哈莱姆周为该地区带来了新生。这个曾经荒废的社区现在有了修复的建筑、新的企业和移民。街道上充满了爵士、雷鬼、R&B和福音音乐的传统。Moore, the Harlem native whose mother moved to Virginia, watched as big national stores moved in. Sometimes they took the place of local shops and made rents go up. "Some of that is okay, but what about the small business where you can get that great sandwich?" she asked. Moore wants people to eat less fast food, so she teaches healthy eating and cooking to young local students.Moore的母亲搬到了弗吉尼亚，而她是哈莱姆的原住民，她目睹了大规模的全国性商店的进驻。有时它们取代了当地的小店，导致租金上涨。“有些变化是可以接受的，但那些可以让你吃到美味三明治的小店呢？”她问道。Moore希望人们少吃快餐，所以她向当地年轻学生教授健康饮食和烹饪。At Harlem Week, Moore represented GirlTrek, a national movement of Black women supporting health through walking. She said, "I feel like I should have left a long time ago, but something about Harlem draws me back to it."在哈莱姆周，Moore代表GirlTrek，这是一个通过步行支持健康的黑人女性全国运动。她说：“我觉得我早就应该离开，但哈莱姆有某种东西吸引我回到这里。”Moore continued, "Harlem is my beginning. Harlem is my future. Harlem is a huge part of what makes me who I am."Moore继续说道：“哈莱姆是我的起点。哈莱姆是我的未来。哈莱姆是让我成为今天的我的一个重要部分。”

Morgan Dixon and her best friend Vanessa Garrison wanted to fix a systemic issue: Black women getting sicker and dying younger due to centuries of racial injustice. But they didn't go straight to the healthcare system or to the many institutions plagued by systemic racism. Instead, they convinced their community to walk everyday together. Today, GirlTrek is the largest social movement for Black women in the country. In this episode, we will learn a bottom up approach to systems change. One that begins with one's community and slowly moves toward institutional and policy change. Featuring T. Morgan Dixon, Co-Founder & CEO GirlTrek and Dr. Gary Bennett, Professor and Dean of the Trinity College of Arts and Sciences at Duke University.If you want to learn more about GirlTrek visit girltrek.org.Resources mentioned in this episode:TedTalk: The trauma of systematic racism is killing Black women.

A simple walk can be an incredible tool for healing. In this week's rewind episode, I'm resharing one of our most popular episodes all about the incredible mental, physical, and emotional benefits of walking.Tune in to not only be inspired to move your body, but also to learn how to explore that why and define the intentions that serve your goals and desires. And remember, tag us if you go on that walk. Let's create a #BalancedBlackGirlWalks movement.

How do we personally take action to shift the narrative?   With an energetic calm that is both inspiring and soothing, playwright/actor/producer Nambi E. Kelley (Native Son, Re-Memori, Jabari Dreams of Freedom) joins hosts Jason and Yvonne Lee for a discussion about how we take action to shift the narrative from one that is exclusive and often incorrect, to one that is authentic to ourselves and our stories.   Knowing that small change can make a tidal wave of change, these three discuss their personal journeys as examples of how they have individually taken action to change the narrative. From acting in roles and productions with representative stories, to providing access to those who are climbing the ladder now, to adapting stories with strong messages, this episode is full of inspiring solutions to using your voice and career to make change.   As they say, if we don't take action now, we're not just letting down those who came before us, but those who came after us.   Jason makes his first original-recipe cocktail and names it Bureau 68 after being inspired by the actions of the Freedmen's Bureau of 1865-1868. As he says, “[This cocktail] is built upon the specs of others through the lens of access, brought together in the combination of remembrance of all these accomplishments but also the combined bittersweetness of success.”    What advice can we give to those coming up behind us? How can we strive for individuality and the freedom that brings?   Nambi and The Lees suggest that by maintaining identity, self-love and actualizing kindness, we can achieve individuality. By being individual, which means being true-to-self, we can achieve a level of freedom; they further  encourage us to be scared but then also be courageous. They ask, how do you change the narrative – how do you impact people? You tell the truth.   For more spirited discussions, make sure to subscribe to the podcast. And if you've enjoyed thinking and mocktailing along with us, we'd love for you to leave us a review. Cheers … and Please Drink Responsibly!   Links:   Guests: Nambi E.

Janelle opens up about the challenges of exploring their queerness in the public eye.

“Rarely, if ever, are any of us healed in isolation. Healing is an act of communion." - bell hooks If you are like us, you are sitting with a deep ache in your heart. Just as we’d begun to shake off some of the weariness that we’ve held while watching the verdict come down in the murder of George Floyd, we see Ma’Khia Bryant’s video pass through our timelines and read the news that a 16-year-old Black girl has been shot four times by police.   Sisters, we know this feels relentless. It is relentless. And that’s their strategy. The pressure is on to keep us in an exhaustive state of grief that robs us of our joy, our will to organize, and our collective faith. We must resist. And we must reject the urge to hold the rage. And we must keep moving forward with our collective healing as a people because on the other side of healing is liberation. In that spirit, and in honoring GirlTrek’s legacy of healing Black women through the ancestral tradition of walking, you are invited to join us for a National Walk and Talk. Together we will spend 60 minutes moving through grief, honoring our dead, discussing the path forward, and connecting with the divine power that guides us all.  Disclaimer: We do not own the rights to the music played during this broadcast.

With Black women earning roughly $0.62 per $1 that white non-hispanic men made in 2019, August 13, 2020 was how long they would need to work to catch up to that equal salary. What are some ways that we can advocate for ourselves to negotiate for fair pay? And how can we continue to save and secure our finances once we are there?

Everyone's heard of Martin Luther King Jr. But do you know the woman Dr. King called "the architect of the civil rights movement," Septima Clark? The teacher of some of the generation's most legendary activists -- like Rosa Parks, Diane Nash, Fannie Lou Hamer and thousands more -- Clark laid out a blueprint for change-making that has stood the test of time. Now T. Morgan Dixon and Vanessa Garrison, the cofounders of GirlTrek, are taking a page from Clark's playbook to launch a health revolution in the US -- and to get one million women walking for justice. (This ambitious plan is a part of The Audacious Project, TED's initiative to inspire and fund global change.) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

"When black women walk, things change," say T. Morgan Dixon and Vanessa Garrison, the founders of the health nonprofit GirlTrek. They're on a mission to reduce the leading causes of preventable death among black women -- and build communities in the process. How? By getting one million black women and girls to prioritize their self-care, lacing up their shoes and walking in the direction of their healthiest, most fulfilled lives. Hosted on Acast.
