Amara's birthday wish was to visit her father's family— Harlem, to be exact. She can't wait to finally meet her grandfather and cousins in person, not only as a dream come true, but also as a journey to find her roots – to her family's home, the Harlem neighborhood where her father grew up.
But New York wasn't what Amara had imagined. It was crowded, the subway was chaotic, the sidewalks were suffocatingly crowded, and her father was too busy at work to spend time with her. During this time, she encountered many problems, one of which was culture shock, such as her being somewhat out of place with her cousins; such as the conflict between her father and grandfather. But as the experience of her hometown deepened, Amara began to realize the historical african-American influence that the people of Harlem had fought for freedom, and as their roots, there was no place to compare. The experience allowed her to start looking at her hometown from a different perspective.
