    “Book Descriptions: **One of Buzzfeed's 18 Best Nonfiction Books Of 2016**

    A lyrical, intelligent, authentic, and necessary look at the intersection of race and class in Chicago, a Great American City

    In this intelligent and highly important narrative, Chicago-native Natalie Moore shines a light on contemporary segregation in the city's South Side; with a memoirist's eye, she showcases the lives of these communities through the stories of people who reside there. The South Side shows the impact of Chicago's historic segregation - and the ongoing policies that keep the system intact.”
