This is an issue of The Chronicle, published July 22, 1971. Articles in this issue cover topics including discussions on a $50,000 grant awarded to the University of Florida for disadvantaged students, a survey revealing discrimination in city hiring practices against Black individuals in several Florida cities, and efforts by Commissioner Lait to secure funding for street paving in Fort Pierce. Editorials highlight the critical importance of political engagement within Black communities and address the significant issue of job opportunities and unemployment among Black workers. The paper also features a letter to the editor questioning police conduct, practical advice on cooking, home maintenance, and laundry, and an advertisement linking hair coloring to African heritage and Black pride. An interview with Sammy Davis Jr. discusses his commitment to the Black community.
