A white priest and the NAACP Youth Council marched over the 16th Street Viaduct into the white South Side for 200 consecutive nights, met by crowds throwing bottles. The city passed an open housing law in 1968. Milwaukee remains among the most segregated metros in the country.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
