Philadelphia Ghetto
(sorry for the late entry, I was a bit confused)
We felt that most of what DuBois described was not really what the stereotypical image of a ghetto is. (Poverty stricken, crime) Though it did fit with a group of people with similar ethnicity being exploited and being taken advantage of be it through their employment, housing, etc. A quote that described it well:
"Everybody speaks of the matter, everybody knows that it exists, but in just what form it shows itself or how influential it is few agree. In the Negro's mind, color prejudice in Philadelphia is that widespread feeling of dislike for his blood, which keeps him and his children out of decent employment, from certain public conveniences and amusements, from hiring houses in many sections, and in general from being recognized as a man."
