The 47th Street Vintage Hat Shoppe is Now Open
The story of the Bronzeville Babies™ woman, particularly through the character Alice Suell, encapsulates this tradition. Alice raised her four sons with strict yet loving guidance, ensuring they lived up to the expectations of being well-rounded Black men, despite challenges posed by their circumstances and environment. Alice lived in Chicago’s Bronzeville community with her sons during the Great Migration.
