RE: A Sandburg Stumper
Sorry Anita, but Steve got it. Sandburg covered the 1919 race riot in Chicago for the Chicago Daily News, and while some of his writing might seem somewhat obtuse to our 21st century ears, it was one of the few times that African-Americas in Chicago were treated as human beings in the white Chicago press.
Great job Steve. Best Rob Abraham Lincoln is the only man, dead or alive, with whom I could have spent five years without one hour of boredom. --Ida M. Tarbell
I want the respect of intelligent men, but I will choose for myself the intelligent. --Carl Sandburg
