Chicago's Black Traffic In White Girls is a book written by Jean Turner-Zimmermann in 1911. The book explores the issue of human trafficking and the exploitation of young white girls in Chicago during the early 20th century. Turner-Zimmermann provides a detailed account of the methods used by traffickers to lure young girls into a life of prostitution, including false job offers and promises of a better life. She also sheds light on the corrupt police force and the complicity of some members in the trafficking industry. The book is a harrowing account of the brutal reality faced by these girls and the efforts made by social reformers to combat the problem. Overall, Chicago's Black Traffic In White Girls is an important historical document that sheds light on a dark chapter in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
