Bronzeville, Pullman & the African-American History of the South Side

The South Side of Chicago — the vast swath of the city south of the Loop, home to approximately 1 million residents — is the historic heart of African-American Chicago, the destination of the Great Migration (the movement of approximately 6 million African Americans from the rural South to northern cities between 1910 and 1970) and the birthplace of Chicago Blues, gospel music, and much of the cultural innovation that made Chicago one of the most creatively significant cities in 20th-century American history.
