A Walk Through Harlem

Bessie's Dentist office was located at 2305 Seventh Avenue. I'm not sure where the apartment was, but I believe that it was located near the dentist's office.

There were a lot of very interesting places on the website. One thing I noticed was that there were a lot of very important churches which I find interesting because Bessie and Sadie were very strong Christians and they went to church every Sunday because they had grown up with their father who was a pastor. Another important place is Sugar Hills because in the book the Delany sisters talked with W.E.B. Du Bois at several occasions and that was where he lived. Speaker's corner can also be considered very important because Bessie felt it was necessary for her to stand up for her beliefs and the rights she deserved. Overall Harlem was very important to the Delany sisters.
