The Chicago Race Riots Of 1919
By Decades TV
“Carl Sandburg likened the 1919 riot in Chicago to ‘the jungle.’ It was a swarming mass of violence and outrage that was sparked by one teenager unknowingly crossing an unmarked line that divided white Chicago from black Chicago on July 27, 1919, nearly 100 years ago.”

The U.S. Supreme Court Decision They Don’t Want You To Know About
By Jonathan Stempel/Reuters
The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday rejected former TV pitchman Kevin Trudeau’s bid to overturn his criminal contempt conviction and 10-year prison sentence for exaggerating the content of a weight loss book he marketed through infomercials.
Without comment, the Supreme Court let stand a Feb. 5 ruling by the federal appeals court in Chicago, which upheld Trudeau’s November 2013 conviction over his promotion of the 2007 book The Weight Loss Cure ‘They’ Don’t Want You To Know About.
Viewers were told they could “cure” obesity without dieting or exercise, but the book told readers to consume only 500 calories and walk one hour each day, take hormones, and undergo liver and colon cleanses and enema-like colonics.
