A Transplanted Chicago: Race, Place and the Press in Iowa City

This book looks at the movement of urban American blacks into the Midwest through the experience of Iowa City, a town desperately trying to redefine itself. Pressing questions have plagued the community for decades: Why are people from Chicago coming here? Who gets to define community identity? Who makes decisions on housing, employment and education? Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.
