Few museums show the North's Civil Rights Movement. A new one in Harlem is ‘just getting started’

NEW YORK (AP) — The National Urban League will open a museum this weekend in Harlem dedicated to the civil rights struggles in the North, the first of its kind in New York City. Located in the Urban League’s Manhattan headquarters, the Urban Civil Rights Museum in Harlem explores the region's lesser-known histories of the Civil Rights Movement and the local changemakers and artists whose contributions helped shape politics and culture worldwide. With nearly 12,000 square feet (1,100 square meters) of permanent and rotating exhibits and galleries, organizers say they hope to remind visitors of their “collective power” in the present. “We want people to know that they are key participants,” Jennifer Scott, the museum’s founding executive director and chief curator, told The Associated Press during an exclusive preview of the space. “History is living, it’s unfinished, and we can impact it,” she said. Scott is a national public history scholar with experience preserving Black history in museums and research centers across the country. She led the design of a permanent interactive installation and an inaugural set of rotating exhibitions. Marc Morial, the Urban League’s president and CEO, underscored the importance of establishing the museum just blocks from such key

Surprising dish at Eggholic in Jersey City

A couple of weeks ago, we made our way to Eggholic in Jersey City to discover a concept that's a little different from your typical Indian restaurant: founded in 2018 by cousins Bhagyesh and Lay Patel, Eggholic was inspired by the egg-centric street food of Gujarat, India, bringing dishes that are common at late-night food stalls back home to diners across the United States. What makes Eggholic unique is its celebration of eggs in all forms, from rich curries and sandwiches to street food specialties packed with bold spices and authentic flavors. The concept recreates the experience of India's bustling street-side food carts, where dishes are cooked fresh to order and meant to be shared with friends and family. This is a casual place where you will order at the counter and they will give you a number that you will put visibly on the table so they can bring your food when ready. We started off with some appetizers. The first one was dahi puri ($8.99), a popular Indian street food (chaat) made with small, crispy hollow puris that are filled with a mixture of potatoes, chickpeas, onions, and chutneys, then topped with dahi (yogurt) and various spices. I love these because they are crispy on the outside, creamy, sweet and savory, definitely a challenge to eat as, to get all the flavors, getting them in your mouth in one bite is the best. We also got their samosa ($3.99), that had a slight kick, but I admit that although I liked the filling, I did not like the shell at all that lacked the usual crispiness. For the main, we first got their paneer butter masala ($15.99) that is Indian cottage cheese (paneer) simmered in a buttery onion-tomato gravy. This was good, but quite spicy and I was happy to have a mango lassi ($5.99) to tame the spiciness. But the dish that blew me away was their boil tikka ($14.99). I mean, we are in a place that celebrates eggs, so we had to try an egg dish and I was not disappointed: it is made with sliced eggs sautéed in a rich, garlicky tomato gravy packed with spices. This one was not spicy and very comforting, eaten with roti ($2.98) and some rice. I simply loved it and will probably try to make it at home!
