Abstract
Reed talks about his childhood in Providence on the East Side and the West Side, where he moved when he was seven. He describes the African American families that lived on Benefit Street in earlier decades (1950s and 1960s) before the area became gentrified. His interview especially highlights the history of small markets and restaurants near Cranston Street and the impact of immigration and changing demographics.
