Tomorrow's Bread by Anna Jean Mayhew

This book is the Community Read choice for my local library this spring, and it was very interesting. It tells the story of what happened to the Brooklyn neighborhood of Charlotte, NC in the 1960s from a few different viewpoints. The primariliy black neighborhood was torn down and the residents displaced by the city as the city expanded. The story follows a single mother, a local pastor and a wife of one of the city planners through the period of time where all the changes were happening. I learned a lot about what happened, and have a better understanding of the city I call home right now.
