Can someone make a main idea out of this?

Basically the article stated how African Americans were mistreated and weren’t allowed to buy and own a house around middle class areas and white neighborhoods. They had to stay in one area called, “The Black Belt”, they were treated differently because of their skin color. African-Americans were crowded only giving one area of Chicago to live. They had to live in apartments, where they hardly recieve basic necessities. When they were able to get a house around white neighborhoods they were physically abused and threatened.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The main idea is that African Americans were treated badly because of their skin color. They couldn't be like other people just because of how they looked. Racism.

Hope this helps :)
