Let's start from the beginning...
The history of Chicago dates back to the 1770s when Jean Baptiste Point du Sable first arrived from Haiti as a free Black man. His influence continued to shape Black culture in the city for years to come.
Black history of Chicago continued into the early and mid-1900s when the Great Migration brought thousands of African Americans to the windy city from the south. Since then, they've founded churches, community organizations and businesses. Their presence has influenced the arts, including music and literature.
When you book our historic tour of Chicago, we'll take you back in time so you can gain a better understanding of the Black men and women that came before us and helped shape our city. Black culture helped transform Chicago into the city it is today, so book our historic tour of Chicago today.
