Race & Class or Race vs. Class

Listen Thursday, May. 3, 2007 at 12:06 p.m. in Economy, Society

Tensions between homeowners and apartment dwellers, newcomers and old-timers, the haves and the have-nots are common, and often affect relations within the black community. We'll look at a study of one changing neighborhood in Chicago and consider what it tells us about our region.
