Event Description
Led by the great civil rights activist and oral historian of Bronzeville, Timuel D. Black, who has lived on Chicago’s South Side for nine decades, this tour affords special insights into the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the nonviolent civil rights movement in Chicago. Learn how the stage was set for Dr. King by the founding of the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) in Chicago in the early 1940s, how Dr. King organized his 1966 protests in Chicago, and how the legacy of Dr. King has been kept alive in Chicago, influencing such figures as President Barack Obama.
