  7. '42' in the Windy City

    When Jackie Robinson and the Brooklyn Dodgers brought their historic roadshow to Chicago a few weeks into the 1947 season, a record crowd of 46,572 people crammed into Wrigley Field, and 20,000 more stood outside wishing they could get in.

  11. 'Sweet Sisters of Zion' doc celebrates the Barrett Sisters

    Five years ago, the greatest trio in the history of gospel music – the Barrett Sisters – told me they had one last wish: That someone would make a documentary film about their lives and careers.

  13. The many shades of meaning in 'Negro'

    I got a clue even before my column ran this week that its subject — what "Negro" means these days — might make some folks uncomfortable. I'd pulled up to the valet stand at the Hilton and waited while the young man fumbled through the...

  21. Newton: Some questions for Greuel and Garcetti

    There was plenty to grouse about in the first round of the Los Angeles mayor's race. Instead of real discussion of the city's issues, the candidates offered evasive cliches.
