@thecolorsofournistory: Rare Colorized Footage - Chicago, 1930s These little girls… could be our grandmothers. Playing on the hard streets of a city deep in the Great Depression. Tiny hands pushing doll carriages, living a childhood that most of us can barely imagine. They never knew people almost a century later would still be watching them. Restored, upscaled, colorized, and sound-designed by The Colors of Our History. Footage originally from: National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) & Prelinger Archives.

Those three girls have probably already passed by now. A whole life is but a brief moment in time.

It must have been difficult to live in that era if you weren't white.

I think this was the Mexican neighborhood where UIC is now. All those people were forced to relocate to Pilsen

My grandma grew up in the avondale neighborhood during the Great Depression. We used Chicago Public Library records to find her childhood home and take her back.
