520    "Pittsburgh is a working city, in no small part thanks to 
       its strong African American community. As an integral stop
       on the Underground Railroad, many enslaved people traveled
       through Pittsburgh on their way further North, and many 
       still decided to stay. During the Great Migration of the 
       early 20th century, Pittsburgh was again a main 
       destination for African Americans from the rural South; 
       approximately 95% of these men became steelworkers. There 
       was never one centralized neighborhood where a majority of
       the Black population lived, but Jim Crow discrimination 
       was still rampant, even in a city such as Pittsburgh. 
       Photographs captured by famed Pittsburgh photographer 
       Charles "Teenie" Harris show the candid experiences of 
       residents, including the achievements and celebrations of 
       people struggling in adversity and finding happiness in 
       their families and community."--|cProvided by Freading.
