Answer 1

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The word 'slumming' can be defined as an act of going to socially low-level area and spending time there either with the purpose to do charity or just out of curiosity.

Harlem is a city located in the neighbourhood of New York City after blacks migrated to the place the city became a restricted area to go.

But in the early 1920s, the whites began slumming to Harlem. They left their sophisticated ways to get a share of black life. They packed themselves in speakeasies, dancehalls, jazz clubs, etc.

So, the correct answer is option A.
