Résumé
Our nation's big cities are broken. Urban progressive government badly undermines those it claims to lift up. Matt Rosenberg lived in Chicago for thirty years, and came back to live there again amidst the turmoil of 2020. What Next, Chicago? Notes of a Pissed-Off Native Son exposes the roots of Chicago's violent crime, failing courts and schools, rotten finances, and ongoing Black exodus, and proposes a rescue plan for this emblematic American city."What has happened to Chicago? That's Matt Rosenberg's question, and mine as well.
His loving tribute to our hometown is a moving, sensitive, humane, and trenchant critical assessment. Read it and weep." -Glenn C. Loury, Professor of the Social Sciences at Brown University, and author of One By One from the Inside Out: Essays and Reviews on Race and Responsibility in America"Matt Rosenberg writes about the Chicago Way in the Chicago Style of a Mike Royko.. It's a coherent, honest, and balanced tour of the city's perpetual corruption, unsafe streets, gawd-awful schools, ghost neighborhoods, financial legerdemain, and the false Unified Theory of Systemic Racism that cloaks it all.
Yet, What Next, Chicago? is no helpless, hopeless wail, but a powerful and useful roadmap for a rebirth of a once-great city, based on the voices of Black families and others who don't need academia to know what to do. Must reading for Chicago lovers." -Dennis Byrne, former Chicago Sun-Times editorial board member
