African Americans in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania

African Americans in Pittsburgh chronicles the distinct trends in this African American community. There was never one centralized neighborhood where a majority of the black population lived, and city schools were integrated until after desegregation laws were passed. Photographs captured by famed Pittsburgh photographer Charles Teenie” Harris show the candid experiences of residents, including the achievements and celebrations of people struggling to put scraps of food on the table.Brewer, John M., Jr. is the author of 'African Americans in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania', published 2006 under ISBN 9780738544878 and ISBN 0738544876.
