The blacks in Black Milwaukee were not only ghetto dwellers; they were also industrial workers. The process by which they achieved this status is the subject of Trotters ground-breaking study.This second edition features a new preface and acknowledgments, an essay on African American urban history since 1985, a prologue on the antebellum and Civil War roots of Milwaukees black community, and an epilogue on the post-World War II years and the impact of deindustrialization, all by the author. Brief essays by four of Trotters colleagues--William P. Jones, Earl Lewis, Alison Isenberg, and Kimberly L. Phillips--assess the impact of the original Black Milwaukee on the study of African American urban history over the past twenty years.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51928702026016,"sku":"NEW0252074106","price":39.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/black-milwaukee-the-making-of-an-industrial-proletariat-1915-45-0252074106","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
