"I wanted to provide the service in my community that, oftentimes, we think we can't afford or it's a luxury. It's for the rich and it's for other people. It's for us too!"
Harlem Parade, inspired by Beyonce's “Black Parade” single and business directory (curated by Zerina Akers’ “Black Owned Everything”), is a celebratory platform that spotlights the rich, Black, cultural legacy and diverse commerce of Harlem. It is a platform that focuses on art, business, and entrepreneurship, which are paramount to the Black American experience.
