The DuSable Museum of African American History in Chicago has Jazz Nights on their lawn every week during the summer.

I don't see anything wrong with him having music/comedy sets to generate revenue.

However, he needs to work on having robust curation for his museum.

He needs to have some nice artifacts for the museum. Those laminated posters under neon lights ain't gonna cut it.

That jazz night sounds dope as hell :whew: the comparisons with other museums don't amount to much seeing how they actually have museum events. It's safe to say at this point that the artifact curation is complete and it's ull steam ahead on promoting Comedy Night, Amateur Hour, Dance battles, etc

That’s true, they do have other activities aside. Whenever I’m going to Chicago I’m going to visit this museum, considering it’s always open and accessible as a museum spot.



“Founded in 1961, the DuSable is one of the first African-American museums in the U.S. It follows African-American history from its beginning on the shores of Africa to a celebration of African-American achievements including those of Bessie Coleman, the nations first black female aviator; World War II Tuskegee airmen; Major Robert Lawrence, the nation's first black astronaut; and Harold Washington, Chicagos first black mayor. The museum is dedicated to the collection, preservation, interpretation, and dissemination of the history and culture of Africans and Americans of African descent. Weaving themes of art, history, and diversity, it also tells us Whats American about Americans? and What Shall I Tell My Children who are Black? For more information, visit“

The hidden museum has no real curator. An actual curator can manage and arrange actual real authentic artifacts. As of now it’s a club with some artistic art on the walls.

You should read up on the founder of the DuSable, Dr. Margaret Burroughs. She's a vaunted luminary here in Chicago.

Margaret Burroughs created a voice for African-Americans that was not present until she established the DuSable Museum in her home. This home welcomed luminaries like artist Charles White, Gordon Parks, Augusta Savage and many more who related to her commitment to developing the voice of African American artists.

Margaret Burroughs was an artist herself who captured the life of children in the African American community in a very positive way. Her fame never affected her promoting the young artist of every artistic discipline.

She authored books for children like What Shall I Tell My Children Who Are Black. Dr. Burroughs creativity can be seen in her artwork that shares our appreciation for use in the settings by which individuals interpret their cultural identity.

Fascinating is the fact that Burroughs established two museums, the DuSable Museum and the South Side Community Arts Center in Chicago. Creating venues that allow African-American creative artists to fashion their culture to be previewed inside their community was critical to Burroughs’ thinking.

The Burroughs’ mansion located at 3806 South Michigan Avenue was the first home of the DuSable Museum but its history is also attached to the Pullman porters who regarded the mansion as the Quincy Club. It is from this type of socially empowering event, which took place in its history that creating a museum was seen as necessary in order for African-Americans not to have to ask permission to have their cultural voice allowed and free.

Margaret Burroughs is a true African-American and American treasure. Her spirit forged the voice of the African-American artist and broadcast their spirit of creativity from Chicago to the world.

Ideally, this is the type of person you want overseeing a black history museum. Any others won't be committed to the type of excellence needed to shepherd such an institution into the hands of upcoming generations.



As an aside, I'm the cousin by marriage to Dr. Charles H Wright of the Charles H. Wright African American History Museum of Detroit. His wife, Dr. Roberta Hughes Wright, who was the Chairman of the Museum after he died, is my actual blood cousin.

Read up on her too.
