“The People Could Fly” is a very relevant and layered statement used by and about people of African descent in America.

This event is part of “Your City @ Home”: a series of virtual field trips meant to give you the chance to explore all the Chicagoland area has to offer! This series is sponsored by multiple Illinois public libraries.
