The tour will begin at the DuSable Black History Museum, the longest running museum dedicated to the preservation and documentation of Black history and culture. After meeting there, we will tour historical sites of artists and activists who shaped what we recognize as the Black Metropolis of America—discover a side of Chicago that stands taller than the buildings of the Riverwalk.
