Our final episode of February’s Black History Series takes us to Illinois. First, Rachel goes back to Chicago to talk about the incredible life of Fred Hampton and his horrible murder. Then, Emily goes to East St. Louis, IL to share the gruesome details of the 1917 East St. Louis Race Riots (better described as a straight-up massacre). Hopefully, you’re horrified!
