The Bicentennial Census in a Mixed Neighborhood in Chicago
The Bicentennial Census in a Mixed Neighborhood in Chicago
EV91-02
Introduction
The original focus of this work was on the American Indian population of Chicago. Chicago became a center of Indian population shortly after the Second World War. Wartime employment opportunities and subsequent federal relocation programs for American Indians brought thousands of Indian people from reservations into the city. The Chicago American Indian Center was established in 1952 to assist Indian people in finding work, housing, and social support in the city.
