Book Description
Richard G. Hatcher became the first African American mayor of Gary, Indiana in 1968 after a bitter, hard-fought campaign. He ran without party support in a city that had overwhelmingly voted for George Wallace in the 1964 presidential primary. Along with Carl Stoke's election in Cleveland, it ushered in a new era of black political power. This book traces the growth of Hatcher as a young loayer from a southern migrant family. The author argues that this story represents a microcosm of the black political power struggle of the time.

Racial Politics And Urban Planning
Author: Robert A. Catlin
Publisher: University Press of Kentucky
ISBN: 0813156955
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
When Richard G. Hatcher became the first black mayor of Gary, Indiana in 1967, the response of Gary's white businessmen was to move the entire downtown to the suburbs, thereby weakening the city core. Meanwhile, white business and institutional leaders in Atlanta, Detroit, and Newark worked with black mayors heading those majority-black cities to rebuild their downtowns and neigh¬borhoods. Why not Gary? Robert A. Catlin, who served as Mayor Hatcher's planning advisor from 1982 to 1987, here analyzes the racial conflicts that tore Gary apart. He asserts that two types of majority-black cities exist. Type I -- including Atlanta, Baltimore, Detroit, and Newark -- have Fortune 500 corporate headquarters, major universities, and large medical centers -- institutions that are placebound -- and their leaders must work with black mayors. Type II cities like Gary lack these resources; thus, their white leaders feel less compelled to cooperate with black mayors. Unfortunately in Gary's case, black politicians and white executives fell victim to pettiness and mistrust, and, as a result, Gary and the entire northwest Indiana region suffered. Racial Politics and Urban Planning is required reading for citizens interested in urban affairs. Leaders in cities such as Albany and Macon, Georgia; Monroe, Louisiana; Mount Vernon, New York; and Pine Bluff, Arkansas, should also take note. Those cities have just become majority black and are in the Type II category. Will they learn from Gary, or are they doomed to repeat its mistakes?
