WITH LOVE FROM HARLEM

William Greaves, 80 min.

In 1972, thousands of Black people from across the country gathered in Gary, Indiana, for the National Black Political Convention, an extraordinary attempt to imagine Black political power on a national scale.

William Greaves was there with his camera.

This Saturday night, we screen his landmark documentary NATION TIME in solidarity with Gary as the city recovers from a devastating storm and prolonged power outages.

100% of ticket proceeds will support relief efforts in Gary.

More than fifty years ago, people came to Gary to gather, organize, debate and dream.

This weekend, we gather in Harlem to send some love back.

Where is Mother Hale’s statue today?

At 152 West 122nd Street in Harlem, the historic Hale House stands as a reminder of Clara “Mother” Hale, who opened her home and her heart to children in need. Her compassion grew into Hale House, which became nationally recognized for caring for children and supporting families during some of Harlem’s most challenging years.

A bronze statue of Mother Hale with a child, created by renowned sculptor Robert Berks, once stood in front of the brownstone as a tribute to her remarkable legacy.

But what happened to the statue?

The Hale House building was sold in 2024, and the statue was subsequently removed. Today, we are trying to determine where the original bronze statue is located.

We’re asking the Harlem community, former Hale House staff and families, historians, preservationists, artists, and anyone familiar with Mother Hale’s story:

Do you know where the statue is today?

If you have information, photographs, records, or personal memories that could help us locate or document the statue, please comment below or send us a DM.

Help us preserve and reconnect an important piece of Harlem’s history and Mother Hale’s legacy.
