Reposted from @djcosito TUE 12.13 - Doing this one for #Harlem! The Holidays are officially here and we would love nothing more than to disrupt your week with a little gathering for some fun, laughs, drinks and eats for a good cause. Sundae Sermon and NYC Dope! come together to bring you our annual Ugly Sweater/Holiday Party. This year we are adding a Coat Drive to the evening that will benefit NY Cares who will receive and distribute the donations. Please donate new or lightly used (CLEAN) coats to this event and help keep a neighbor warm this winter. DJs Stormin' Norman, Marc Smooth and myself will be spinning the grooviest of your favorite Soul, Hip-Hop, RnB, House, Disco, Reggae, Afrobeats and more. To get everyone into the holiday spirit, we ask that you don your funniest, ugliest holiday sweater for a room full of foolery and fun. We know these days are difficult for some, so bringing our village of Harlem together for good times and holiday cheer would make all our spirits bright. #HappyHolidays! Harlem Tavern 2153 Frederick Douglass BLVD c/o of 116th Street. (B,C to 116th St.) 6PM - 12AM FREE w/RSVP via Eventbrite (link in bio) #TisTheSeason #SundaeSermon #NYCDopeParty #HarlemWorld #NYNightlife #UglySweaterParty #HolidayParty (at Harlem Tavern) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmHVpM6Opay/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We walked West down 125th street, and boom, welcome to the APOLLO!
This was a legendary experience, and the energy was electrifying!

In 1918 Evelyn Berry and Victoria Ross started a doll company called Berry & Ross. These two women were the first African American female large-scale manufacturers of black composition dolls. Considered trailblazers within their community, Berry and Ross opened their doll factory at 36-38 West 135th Street in Harlem, New York.
Retailers in New York City, Boston, Philadelphia, and other cities carried the Berry and Ross Dolls in their department stores. The company also sold dolls in Africa, a Berry and Ross doll sold for 29 cents to $3.50 for a 16-inch Doris with long flowing curls. The dolls were appealing to black and white children.
In the ‘1919 Ad in Crisis," a magazine for the NAACP Magazine, Sherry Howard wrote about the Berry & Ross Dolls, stating that "Berry's famous brown skin dolls was designed and made by colored girls in a factory owned and controlled by colored people." Howard continues, "These dolls are not the old-time, black face, red lip Aunt Jemima colored dolls but dolls well-made and truly representative of the race in hair and features." #BerryandRoss #blackhistorymonth#blackownedcompanies #blackhistory #blackmakers #blackmakers #HarlemWorld #HarlemHistory #blackcreators #ourhistory #americanhistory #blackownedbusiness #blackwomenownedbusiness
