Wikipedia Trail: David Henderson to New York City


So I read David Henderson “California 13” and to be honest it was really good. So when I went on wikipedia I searched David Henderson. It said that he was born in 1942 in Harlem, New York. He had went to 3 different colleges. It stated that “Henderson studied writing, communications and Eastern cultures without ever completing a degree. His first published poem appeared in the New York newsweekly Black American in 1960”(Wikipedia). This lead him to becoming a black Nationalist. After this he had move to the Lower East Side of New York. After I read about his early life I decided to look up the “Lower East side”. When we I had clicked on that it said The Lower East Side is also an abbreviation for LES. This is a part of the southeastern part New York City Borough. It is located by the east river, Bowery, and Canal street. And because I don't know why i decided to click onto the East River next. When i clicked on that page it had said “The East River is a salt water tidal estuary in New York City. The waterway, which is actually not a river despite its name, connects Upper New York Bay on its south end to Long Island Sound on its north end”. To be honest I did not know that the east river is not actually a river. This tells how bad my geography skills are. Lastly I clicked on none other that “new york city” itself. In that article is talked a lot about the early times. Also it talked about the different people who ruled new york in the past. It also talked about the Modern history and geography of New York city.
