African Americans in Pittsburgh chronicles the distinct trends in this African American community. There was never one centralized neighborhood where a majority of the black population lived, and city schools were integrated until after desegregation laws were passed. Photographs captured by famed Pittsburgh photographer Charles �Teenie� Harris show the candid experiences of residents, including the achievements and celebrations of people struggling to put scraps of food on the table.
