Moving to Oak Park: The Attack
Even though Percy Julian had a high-level job at Glidden, he found that he was not offered chances to move even higher. He decided to leave Glidden and start his own chemistry lab.
In 1950, Julian and his family moved into the wealthy white Chicago neighborhood of Oak Park. Some of the people there didn't want a black family to live in Oak Park. Julian and his family were terrorized—frightened and threatened—by attacks on their house.
