Harlem Sketches 1935 Directed by Leslie Bain

Bearing witness to the wretched living conditions of Harlem’s black population during the Great Depression, this short film was shot in the same year as the first race riot in that neighbourhood, now regarded as a distant ancestor of the “Black Lives Matter” movement.
