"The Negro in Chicago: A Study of Race Relations and a Race Riot" is a sociological study published in 1922 by the Chicago Commission on Race Relations. Following the deadly Chicago race riots of 1919, which claimed thirty-eight lives, this groundbreaking 672-page investigation examines what sparked the violence and explores the complex dynamics between Black and white communities. Through extensive fieldwork and hearings, the commission documented housing tensions, employment discrimination, and neighborhood conflicts in a city transformed by Black migration from the South.
