Description

Small businesses have continuously uplifted the historically black community of Deanwood. Alice Chandler and Deborah Jones detail the rich history of small black and Jewish-owned businesses in Deanwood after 1968, a year of sociopolitical upheaval due to the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. Tracking both changes and consistencies from the late sixties until 2018, personal accounts through oral history and photography are used to validate the research presented.
