After further reading about Harlem, I still don't see the connection to the poem because I most see the poem being about race in general. Harlem had their ups and downs through out history, such as an issue with education in the districts, but for Harlem to be tied to theme doesn't make sense.

A wall was between him and his dream, and he wanted help to achieve his dream. The connection between me and the poem would be trying to complete upgrading courses, such as Math 11 part 1 and Chemistry 11, and to get into BSN at BCIT. I had found many obstacles between me and achieving my goal, and that it's taken me awhile to get close to finishing everything by April of
