Description
Alive with the music of Mahalia Jackson and Muddy Waters, this episode describes how rural people blended into Chicago's urban culture. In the 1950s, there were abundant jobs in the stockyards and steel mills and they adapted easily to life on the assembly line. But the dream of the promised land was turning sour. The South Side of Chicago - home for most of the black Americans - had turned into notorious ghetto and was now a ticking time bomb with teenagers forming gangs, while Mayor Daley buried his head in the sand.
