    • Abstract:
      The article informs that Wal-Mart Stores Inc.'s first store in Chicago, Illinois, in Austin neighborhood on the West Side was perceived initially as a boon for minorities. It has been stated that hiring Margaret Garner in 2005 as the first black woman contractor to build the store was an indication for minorities to get jobs and contracting dollars, but now subcontractors of the project have put questions on that.
