Located just outside of St. Louis, Kinloch was once a community locked off from the rest of the area by natural and man-made barriers. In spite of a lack of financial resources, it once provided its residents with a school district, city hall, post office, business district, and recreational facilities. Residents will recognize Dunbar Elementary, the oldest school for blacks in St. Louis County, Holy Angels, the oldest continuing black parish in the St. Louis Archdiocese, as well as former residents Congresswoman Maxine Waters and political activist Dick Gregory. Eventually, due to insufficient revenue, this once thriving community fell into decline, and is now struggling to keep its small town values and ideals alive.

Kinloch: Missouri's First Black City (Images of America Series)
A nice overview of the history of Kinloch. The use of pictures to tell the story helped make the history feel real and let me visualize what the city was like. Still - would have liked to have had a written summary of the history and some of the social context that shaped this unique community.
