The Follow Up
It is the millennium and journalists at a fictionalized Milwaukee newspaper, The Liberal, have decided to do a follow up story on people removed from ethnic neighborhoods nearly 40 years earlier. The ethnic neighborhoods had been razed during two decades of urban renewal and freeway building. The journalists want to know how the large-scale removals affected the lives of African American, Italian, Irish, Puerto Rican, and Polish residents years down the road. Of the people interviewed in the 1960s, only three could be found for the follow up. The interviews are startling and end up revealing as much about the journalists conducting them as they do about the residents that lost their neighborhoods. Overt and covert ideologies abound.
