A good source for homicides is the CDC's WONDER database on mortality.

You can't break out the city of Chicago, but you can look up Cook County. It reports the numbers of victims by race by month back to 1999 and by week since 2018.

Thanks for this article. I assume that black homicide is where the perpetrator is black but the victim may be white or black?

Just reading a book called "Why most things fail" by Paul Ormerod who is also an economist. He describes how, despite money being poured into various social programs, the poor and disadvantaged remain poor and disadvantaged and that they remain in tight enclaves (if that's the right word.)
