"Chicago" includes Chapters 7-14, and covers Obama's career as a community organizer. In Chapter 7, Obama describes his last years in New York. In Chapters 8-14, Obama sticks mostly to chronological organization and recounts his struggles to establish himself as a community organizer in Chicago. This section ends with Obama's visit to Reverend Wright's church, where he has a spiritual experience that resolves much of the tension of racial identity that seems to have propelled him through life until this point.
