Courtesy Elmhurst Art Museum It’s often been said that a picture is worth 1,000 words, “but I think it’s worth even more than that if a photographer is in the right place at the right time capturing something important,” says Wheaton resident Bernard Kleina, whose historic images are the centerpiece of a new exhibit at the Elmhurst Art Museum entitled “In Focus: The Chicago Freedom Movement and the Fight for Fair Housing.” ‘In Focus: The Chicago Freedom Movement and the Fight for Fair Housing’ When: Through June 20 Tickets: $15 for adults, $12 for seniors Running through June 20, the sprawling exhibit explores systemic issues of race-based discrimination surrounding housing opportunities in the Chicagoland area, combining a wealth of news articles, interviews and maps outlining the extraordinary inequities, along with 40 of Kleina’s photographs and first-hand accounts of the groundbreaking work of the Chicago Freedom Movement (CFM). Organized by Martin Luther King Jr., James Bevel and Al Raby during 1965-67, CFM was essential to the passing of the Fair Housing Act of 1968, which prohibited discrimination for housing rentals and loans based on race, religion, gender or national origin.
