Author and historian John Binder discusses organized crime in Chicago during Prohibition—from the decades before 1920 to the repeal of the Dry Law in 1933. He will focus on Chicago’s bootlegging gangs and examine how the Capone gang gained control of essentially all organized crime in the area by the end of Prohibition. This program is free for everyone. A voluntary suggested donation of $15 at the door for non-members is appreciated. There will be no lunch before the program, but there will be a tea table after the program. Contact: The office at 708-386-2729 or [email protected] |
