Homecoming with The Downing Brothers

Sherman "Dilla" Thomas is a Chicago Historian that has made entertaining and enlightening videos on social media to showcase the 77 neighborhoods of Chicago and how they came to be. This episode we talk about what he found about our grandparents journey during the Great Migration to Chicago from Mississippi and what it was like to accomplish the American Dream for them and hundreds of thousands of other African-American that came north in the first half of the 20th century. #chicagohistory #dilla #thedowningbrothers #guaranteedrate --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/anthony-downing/support
