New York just isn't New York anymore – at least not in Harlem and Bedford-Stuyvesant.
Long strongholds for the American black, these Manhattan and Brooklyn neighborhoods have become fertile ground for immigrant families to take root and pursue the American dream.

The catch? Those new faces are black, too.
