Journalist Arionne Nettles believes it is time Black Chicagoans receive the acclaim, the honor, and the acknowledgment of their contributions to American culture and recognition of where they truly came from.During the Great Migration, more than a halfmillion Black Americans moved from the South to Chicago, and with them, they brought the blues, amplifying what would be one of the citys greatest musical artforms. In 1958, the iconic Johnson Publishing Company, the voice of Black America, launched the Ebony Fashion Fair show, leading to the creation of the first makeup brand for Black skin. For three decades starting in the 1970s, households across the country were transported to a stage birthed in Chicago as they moved their hips in front of TV screens airing Soul Train.Chicago is where Oprah Winfrey, a Black woman who did not have the traditional look TV managers pushed on talent, premiered her talk show, which went on to break every record possible and solidify her position as the Queen of Daytime TV. Its where Hall of Famer Michael Jordan led the Bulls to six championships, including two threepeats, making the NBA a mustsee attraction worldwide and wearing Jordans a style symbol to this day. And its home to Grammy winner Chance the Rapper, whose work honors the citys cultural institutions, from the White Sox to modern art superstar Hebru Brantley.It all happened right here, in Chicago, and for the past century, Black Chicagos influence has permeated not just the city but really what we see today as modernday pop culture throughout the country, and in some ways, the world.
