With the historic election of President Barack Obama, it seems as though all the stars are aligning. Let's Go Home to Indiana Harbor is a story that was begging to be told - right now! The vision that President Obama has for a unified America of One Nation, One People, regardless of political inclination, race, religion, or color, is not unlike the America I grew up in.
 
 "The Harbor", as my part of town was affectionately known, was a section of East Chicago, Indiana, where, at that time, just about all the kids had either a Dad or Uncle or cousin or SOMEbody who worked in one of the local steel mills. We were a huge "Melting Pot"  - all in the same boat... and what a mixed up lot we were We had Mexicans, African-Americans, Polish, Serbians, Czechs, Romanians, Puerto Ricans; Jews, Episcopalians, Baptists, Catholics, Methodists, and probably some nationalities and religions I can't even remember.
 
Let's Go Home to Indiana Harbor has 3 goals:
 
1. To lift up Indiana Harbor, or at least the way it used    
    to  be, as an example of how difference races,
    ethnicities, and cultures can live together in  
    harmonius co-existence.
 
2. Take you back to your "Good Old Days"
 
3. To Reawaken or instill in each reader a "sense of 
    community"
