Chicago's New Negroes: Modernity, the Great Migration, and Black Urban Life
Davarian L. Baldwin
As early-twentieth-century Chicago swelled with an influx of at least 250,000 new black urban migrants, the city became a center of consumer capitalism. This work argues that this mass consumer marketplace generated a vibrant intellectual life and planted seeds of political dissent against the dehumanizing effects of white capitalism.
