Our Tours

Harlem, the uncontested capital of Black America, has an unparalleled history that is hard to match by any neighborhood. In this tour, we focus on the Muslim side of this neighborhood history. Muslims have been central to Harlem's history and Harlem has been central to Muslim history in New York and the wider United States. From Sunni Islam to the Nation of Islam to the Five Percenters, numerous sects still thrive in this neighborhood. With new waves of West African immigration, Islam in Harlem has continued to evolve. In this tour, we will hope to get a taste of all of the above.

In this tour, we retrace the steps of Malcolm X through the streets of Harlem as we follow his journey from his teenage years until his death, uncovering the centrality of the neighborhood on his development. This tour is based on “The Autobiography of Malcolm X: As Told to Alex Haley.”
