Honestly, I have enough to do a second and possibly a third episode addressing the many areas in and around Chicago that tried their hardest (and often succeeded) in keeping Black American families from settling there. Here's more from my guest host, Ernest Crim III, and other sources of interest.
Find all things Ernest Crim III at ernestcrim.com. Signed copies of Mr. Crim's books “Black History Saved My Life: How My Viral Hate Crime Led to an Awakening” and “The ABC’s of Affirming Black Children" can be found at https://www.ernestcrim.com/shop.
