Demographic Shifts and Community Resistance
This chapter explores historical and ongoing tensions surrounding population migrations and ethnic identities in northern U.S. cities after the Civil Rights Movement. It examines the resistance from established communities, like Irish and Italian neighborhoods, to African American residents while discussing the implications of gentrification and social identity evolution. The narrative further relates these issues to significant social movements and their impact on national unity and policy development.
