It's one thing to be told that certain bathroom facilities are for "white only" and you have to use the"colored" toilet when down South. It's another thing to get beat up when walking through a white neighborhood and you can only live in certain areas of the city when in the north. A new book, The Chicago Freedom Movement" examines Dr. King's confrontation with northern racial hate when trying to end segregated housing in Chicago. Rev. James Bevel was a principal organizer in Chicago and the book examines much of his activities in the directing of non violent protest tactics. His daughter Sherri Lynn Bevel is our guest today to examine the effectiveness of the northern movement against racial hate
