	Chicago History -- Racism
		Bridgeport's fears were exacerbated by the fact that the population in the fl ghetto was expanding rapidly as a result of migration from the South.
		Despite the legal prohibitions, enough fugitive slaves followed the Underground Railroad to Chicago in the 1840s and 1850s that it came to be known among pro-slavery polemicists as a "sink hole of abolition."

		Bridgeport was a major center of riot activity: by one estimate, 41 percent of all the encounters occurred in and around Daley's neighborhood.
