Timuel D. Black Jr. is a prominent civil rights activist and also professor emeritus of social sciences at the City Colleges of Chicago. The Bridges of Memory series is co-published with the DuSable Museum of African American History.
"[E]ven the casual reader. . .will delight in this invaluable
resource."--Publishers Weekly
"Black has captured the voices of the near past, and they tell a
story as contemporary as our own: that success only comes with
struggle, that progress is possible only when our history is both
reflected and recognized in our contemporary lives." --Booklist
"Black has produced compelling oral history certain to stand
alongside classics on black Chicago that start with St. Clair Drake
and Horace Clayton's Black Metropolis." --Library Journal
