Jim Crow of the North
About Jim Crow of the North
Roots of racial disparities are seen through a new lens in this film that explores the origins of housing segregation in the Minneapolis area. But the story also illustrates how African-American families and leaders resisted this insidious practice, and how Black people built community — within and despite — the red lines that these restrictive covenants created.
Jim Crow of the North is a 2019 documentary film directed by Daniel Pierce Bergin. At 58 minutes long, it arrived in February 2019.
