​Key Questions: 

1. What do the terms Black Belt, Great Migration, and Second Ghetto refer to?
2. What were the "concepts and devices" of racial segregation that Chicago pioneered?
3. What was the role of the universities in the "making of the second ghetto?"
4. How are the policies and practices still at play today?
   

Season Two is sticking with the theme and serving up another episode exploring housing and displacement in Chicago. “Making the Second Ghetto: Race and Housing in Chicago 1940-1960” is considered a premier text on the subject, but…. at 382 dense & jargon-filled pages it’s a bit intimidating. Here to offer a helpful summary is life-long Chicagoan, writer, and neighborhood organizer, Lynda Lopez.
