Detroit wall that once divided races remains, serves as a history lesson

In this 1941 photo supplied by the United States Library of Congress, children stand in front of a half mile concrete wall in Detroit. The wall was built with a simple aim: separate homes planned for middle-class whites from blacks who had already built small houses or owned land with plans to build in the neighborhood.
