Urban Renewal, Politics, Civil Rights

This study of Negro Politics in a medium-sized midwestern
city, describes the role residents of the city's
North End ghetto played in the development of an urban

areas. Federal aid was to be provided communities for
clearance of blighted areas, and the cleared sites were to
be sold to private redevelopers who would agree to develop
them "according to the land use des ignated for that area in
the redevelopment plan. Depending upon city size, the
federal government would pay up to 75% of the cost of
acquisition and clearance of land, the balance to bel paid
by the local community.
