A Walk Through Harlem
Like most of the African Americans in the 1920's, nine of the Delany children moved to Harlem. In which all that came there were looking for a new life. Bessie's office was at 2305 seventh Avenue in which she shared with hap. They both went to church every Sunday to thank the lord for what they got. Bessie's office was the center for activists in which Bessie strongly believed in. While Sadie was more of a side line kind of girl. She believed for rights but staid low. They both followed on the radio on what the activists were doing next. But altogether Harlem was the place to be for making a different for the African American Communities, and both Sadie and Bessie paid their dues.
