Militancy For and Against Civil Rights and Integration in Chicago: Summer 1967 [cover title].

—

---

First edition, thus. This report, conducted by an independent committee, delves into the racial tensions and activism that defined Chicago during the summer of 1967. It focuses on the aggressive and forceful tactics employed by both supporters and opponents of racial equality and integration, often marked by public protests, confrontations, and occasional violence during a pivotal period of the Civil Rights Movement in the United States.

The foreword underscores the committee’s independence and its collaboration with local academic institutions, including the Community and Family Study Center at the University of Chicago, which provided critical support for data collection and analysis. Professors Richard McKinlay and Ethel Shanas led the effort, alongside a dedicated team of over 250 social science students. Scarce to commerce.
