The Gimmick archiveThe Gimmickis a multifaceted word - meaning a shooting-up kit for drugs, a prostitute turning a trick or in a wider sense something or someone who is fake. It is a hard word, born out of the intense and gritty experiences of a young girl growing up in Harlem, New York, in the sixties and seventies. It is a world without illusions, with little love, but with maximum intensity, where the only chance to dream is listening to Archie Bell and the Drells - and fantasising of a future when your childhood is already spent.
