Surrogate Suburbs: Black Upward Mobility and Neighborhood Change in Cleveland, 1900–1980
by Todd M. Michney
On This Page
Description
In this history of Cleveland's black middle class, Todd Michney uncovers the creative ways that a nascent community established footholds in areas outside the overcrowded, inner-city neighbourhoods to which most African Americans were consigned. Michney offers a valuable counterweight to histories that have focused on racial conflict and black poverty.Tags
