{"product_id":"detroit-the-black-bottom-community-images-of-america","title":"Detroit: The Black Bottom Community (Images of America)","description":"Between 1914 and 1951, Black Bottom's black community emerged out of the need for black migrants to find a place for themselves.\n\nBecause of the stringent racism and discrimination in housing, blacks migrating from the South seeking employment in Detroit's burgeoning industrial metropolis were forced to live in this former European immigrant community. During World War I through World War II, Black Bottom became a social, cultural, and economic center of struggle and triumph, as well as a testament to the tradition of black self-help and community-building strategies that have been the benchmark of black struggle. Black Bottom also had its troubles and woes. However, it would be these types of challenges confronting Black Bottom residents that would become part of the cohesive element that turned Black Bottom into a strong and viable community.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0738577103\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0738577103.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Williams, Jeremy\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
