About

Begin at the African Burial Ground National Monument, then journey through the Lower East Side, Chinatown, and Little Italy, uncovering stories of struggle, survival, and celebration among the city’s first ethnic communities.
Sample traditional favorites, like knishes and dumplings, to taste the enduring cultural imprint left by generations who arrived chasing the American Dream.
