Camilo José Vergara – “Harlem: The Unmaking of a Ghetto”
 Camilo José Vergara |
In 1970, award-winning photographer Camilo José Vergara took to the streets of Harlem to document the gradual collapse of a community. As he photographed the iconic New York district over the next 43 years, Harlem evolved from a decaying ghetto into a thriving multicultural neighborhood. Vergara joins us to discuss his latest volume of photography, “Harlem: The Unmaking of a Ghetto”. |
