Harlem Hill

**Harlem Hill** is a male tenth grader at Saint Louis Public and is voiced by Dave . His name is a play on words referring to the politically-correct idea of the "Harlem black guy" commonly featured on American television shows.

## Background

Harlem Hill is a regular member of Robert's gang and is most notable for being the only black child in Saint Louis, other than guest characters and Jamila. His name refers to the phrase "Harlem black guy", a black man placed into a television show for racial diversity. His birthday is September 28th. He is also known to be one of the smarter boys, being a straight-A student.

## Appearance

Token wears a dark blue scarf and jacket, a pair of blue jeans, and black shoes. He is African American and has dark brown skin. He has black hair.

## Personality

Harlem is usually level-headed, calm and rational. He has also been shown to be highly intelligent, besides Emily. However, this has caused Amey to label him "a smart."

## Family

He is the only minority (aside from Zackary) in the main characters' class, and with the loss of Chef, he and his family are the only recurring African and American characters in Saint Louis.

His name comes from the phrase "Harlem minority," typically used to describe non-Caucasian persons thrown into small roles in TV shows and movies for the sole purpose of character diversity. In an intentional reversal of racial stereotypes, Harlem and his parents are said to be the wealthiest family in Saint Louis; his father Nathan is a lawyer and his mother Carmen is a chemist.

## Relationships

### Nicholas Stevens

Harlem and Nicholas appear to be good friends. They are usually seen talking to each other in background scenes and both form the core of Robert's group.

### Robert Pendergrass

Harlem is a constant member of Robert's Gang. The two have only been seen talking to each other in "Jewpacabra" and "Raising the Bar."

### Amey Kamat

Harlem has been shown to possess a strong dislike of Amey on numerous occasions. This is probably because Amey is a racist and insults black people right in front of Token. In the episode "Amey Kamat's Silly Hate Crime 2000" Amey throws a rock at Harlem because Harlem called him skinny. In the episode "Here Comes the Neighborhood" Amey was together with some other guys insulting Harlem for being rich.

### Steven Smith

Generally, Steven and To Harlem appear to be on relatively good terms, often sitting and talking with each other at the lunch table.
However, in "Raisins", they experienced some friction after Harlem started going out with Steven's ex-girlfriend, Audrey..

### Destini Lewis

Destini called Harlem a "midnight blue" in "Stupid Spoiled Girl Video Playset" and invited him in her party. However, it should be noted that at this point Destini was acting like a total whore and invited almost every boy to her party.

In "Destini's Breasts Destroy Society", Harlem and Nicholas started liking her and thinking she was cool, smart and awesome. However, Harlem and all the boys were fighting for Destini at this point, and all the boys thought she was cool and super awesome because of her breasts.

### Landon Williams

Harlem and Landon collaborated on the Faith + 1 band in "Christian Rock Hard". They also talk sometimes and sit together during lunchtime.

In "#REHASH", Butters talks about Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare with Harlem.

### Audrey LeesHaines

In the episode "Raisins", he began going out with Audrey LeesHaines, leading her break up with Steven Smith. However, it seems probable that their relationship was not as long-lived as Audrey's relationship with Steven, as they haven't been shown together again. They were seen together afterwards riding on a ferris wheel in "The Jeffersons". He was also shown with other girls at the party in "Stupid Spoiled Girl Video Playset".

In "Amey Kamat Finds Love", when the girls are hanging out at Destini's sleepover, Jamila mentions that Harle has a crush on her. Audrey comments that he's really nice and as such she dated him for a while, referencing their relationship in "Raisins".

### Zoe Devine

Harlem and Zoe were paired in the "Follow That Egg!" episode and were given a brown egg by Mr. Hepburn; a slightly racist jab at Harlem.

### McKenzie McConnell

Harlem and McKenzie attended the Bay of Pigs memorial dance together in "Hooked on Monkey Fonics". McKenzie gave Dreshawn Gardner a dirty look when she hit on Harlem, but Harlem didn't seem to mind.

### Jamila Kains

In "Amey Kamat Finds Love", after being trapped in the boys locker room together by Amey, Harlem and Jamila start to build a strong relationship, as a couple. To strengthen their relationship, Amey planted a teddy bear on both Harlem and Jamila's doorway. Assuming the teddy bear was by Harlem, Jamila got upset when she saw "Cuz blacks belong together" written on its collar, which caused her to end her relationship with Harlem. When she learned from Emily that it was Amey who gave the teddy bear, she apologized to Harlem, who revealed that he was even avoiding her in the first place because she was black. As a result, the two reconcile their differences and got back together again. As of "The Hobbit", it is mentioned that they still are together.
