Lilia Fernández: Brown in the Windy City

"Brown in the Windy City" is the first history to examine the migration and settlement of Mexicans and Puerto Ricans in postwar Chicago. Lilia Fernández, historian at The Ohio State University, reveals how the two populations arrived in Chicago amid tremendous social and economic change and managed to carve out a geographic and racial place in one of America’s great cities.

This program is presented in partnership with the Humanities Institute at The Ohio State University.
