It's a very interesting video. I visited the DuSable meseum when I attended an antiracism conference. They didnt have even half of this information about this Black pioneer. They accorded him the status of establishing the settlement. Yet went on to say he mysteriously left under some sort of racial "stress."

All of the hard work of the different ethnic groups to form what is now Chicago is being undone by groups of thugs with no respect for life ..I know this is not what anyone intended when they put their blood.sweat and tears into this city He would also be dismayed at how he has been almost wiped out of the history of the city with little to no accolades at what he had created

It’s so sad that this city/state is mostly known for violence and the unaliving of the younger generations whom reside on certain streets, blocks or housing complexes. It’s a shame and so unnecessary to have all this chaos over something that never belonged to them in the 1st place. Can’t take NONE of this with you when you leave this earth.

They talked about the younger sister hiding food in the couch. It started with one of the sisters getting her son ready for school that was right by her house. One of the brothers had done well by going to college and the other brother was in and out of prison.

IS ANYTHING IN CHICAGO NAMED FOR THIS GREAT MAN

He did not found Chicago, He is the longest resident. More than 100 years before he came the natives were already doing business with the French who were living there. They named the river , the Chicago river. Dusable came in the second wave of explorers in the 1700s and was the longest resident because he married a native woman. He is called the longest resident because those who stayed there didn't last more than 5 years because of war, winters and French politics.

Im sorry He did not discover Chicago ... there was a tribal community already here... he reestablished a lost colony of the French who set up the Mision of the guardian angel in 1600s , Was no town yet but a Fur trading post

I grew up in Chicago and have known about Jean Point DuSable all my life, Black people built Chicago, unfortunately, Black people have destroyed Chicago

ARE THERE ANY OFF SPRING OF DUSABLE

He set up a trading post for a time.. He wasn't the first or the last... He was one settler in a chain of settlers.. He wasn't the Brigham Young of Salt Lake City Utah.

Last name pronounced sob-luh.

I didn't know that how many places did africans found in america?
