    The Plan of Chicago, Pt. 3: Streets, Circles & the Central Vision

    One thing Daniel Burnham didn’t shy away from was criticism. He knew that Chicago had too much potential that was withering away. Before he even sat down to write the “Streets” section of his 1909 plan, Chicago’s City Council had spent decades trying to rename, renumber, and reimagine the city streets.Show notes here! Send us Fan MailSupport the showIf you have anything you'd like us to talk about on the podcast, food or history, please email us at ⁠[email protected] US ON YOUTUBE ⁠HERE⁠!Visit our *NEW* website ⁠https://www.77flavors.orgFollow us on IG:77 Flavors of Chicago ⁠@77flavorschi⁠Dario ⁠dariodurhamphotoSara @sarafaddah

    The Plan of Chicago, Pt. 2: Trains, Traffic & Transformation

    One of the largest projects that the plan broke down was transportation. The ideas were large and costly.

    The Plan of Chicago, Pt. 1: Make No Little Plans

    The Burnham Plan of Chicago stands as a clear example of an era when wealthy power players used their influence to shape the city, believing, at least in part, that their vision would serve the public good. Were they always right? Not necessarily. But given the choice, I’ll take an ambitious parks system over another phallic rocket launched into space any day.Read the show notes here! Send us Fan MailSupport the showIf you have anything you'd like us to talk about on the podcast, food or history, please email us at ⁠[email protected] US ON YOUTUBE ⁠HERE⁠!Visit our *NEW* website ⁠https://www.77flavors.orgFollow us on IG:77 Flavors of Chicago ⁠@77flavorschi⁠Dario ⁠dariodurhamphotoSara @sarafaddah

    The Women Who Made Chicago Listen

    The roar of Chicago in the late 19th and early 20th centuries was not just the sound of industry and stockyards; it was the rising collective voice of women demanding influence, education, and reform. Far from the halls of government, these voices were first amplified within the elegant, often unassuming walls of women's clubs, institutions that were simultaneously havens for self-improvement and clandestine engines of social change. The history of Chicago's development is incomplete without tracing the impact of these organizations. They provided the intellectual and organizational springboard for women to step out of the domestic sphere and into the civic arena. Show Notes HereSend us Fan MailSupport the showIf you have anything you'd like us to talk about on the podcast, food or history, please email us at ⁠[email protected] US ON YOUTUBE ⁠HERE⁠!Visit our *NEW* website ⁠https://www.77flavors.orgFollow us on IG:77 Flavors of Chicago ⁠@77flavorschi⁠Dario ⁠dariodurhamphotoSara @sarafaddah

    The Monument Gap: Women in Chicago and Across America

    How many statues of women exist in the city of Chicago; people have asked this question every year in March for the last decade at least!

    Not Just a Month: The Case for Cultural History

    It’s easy to roll your eyes at a heritage month.To assume it’s corporate. Performative. Political. A logo swap and a themed menu and then back to business as usual.But when you step back and really look at the data — at tourism dollars, small business revenue, museum attendance, school engagement, public programming — you start to see something deeper. Heritage months aren’t just symbolic. They move cities. They fund institutions. They spotlight artists, historians, chefs, and community leaders who might otherwise be overlooked.And more importantly? They create space.Space for stories that were erased.Space for traditions that survived anyway.Space for communities to see themselves reflected in the place they call home.In a city like Chicago — layered, immigrant-built, migration-shaped, neighborhood-defined — heritage months are not side notes. They’re essential chapters. They help us understand who built what, who cooked what, who organized, who resisted, who preserved.This episode explores why these months matter beyond the headlines. We dig into the numbers. The impact. The intention. And we ask a bigger question: What would it look like if we carried this same energy all year long?Sources:https://www.cps.edu/strategic-initiatives/black-student-success/https://consortium.uchicago.edu/news-item/Chicago-Public-Schools-and-segregation#:~:text=The%20City%20of%20Chicago%20and%20its%20Board,and%20White%20students%20to%20attend%20separate%20schools.https://statisticalatlas.com/place/Illinois/Chicago/Educational-AttainmentSend us Fan MailSupport the showIf you have anything you'd like us to talk about on the podcast, food or history, please email us at ⁠[email protected] US ON YOUTUBE ⁠HERE⁠!Visit our *NEW* website ⁠https://www.77flavors.orgFollow us on IG:77 Flavors of Chicago ⁠@77flavorschi⁠Dario ⁠dariodurhamphotoSara @sarafaddah

    Where We Were Welcome: Chicago Through the Green Book

    We often spend days looking for one single thread that helps us unravel a story. It often takes even longer when the story is set on the South Side of Chicago. We look for publications, ads, cookbooks, letters, and anything else that would have documented that time period for even a glimpse into what life would be like. One thing that never fails us is the Negro Motroist Green Book. Published between 1936 and 1966, this guidebook offers a great lense into the life of Black Americans at the time. This week, we use the Green Book to trace the enduring legacy and community of Chicago's South Side.Show Notes HereSend us Fan MailSupport the showIf you have anything you'd like us to talk about on the podcast, food or history, please email us at ⁠[email protected] US ON YOUTUBE ⁠HERE⁠!Visit our *NEW* website ⁠https://www.77flavors.orgFollow us on IG:77 Flavors of Chicago ⁠@77flavorschi⁠Dario ⁠dariodurhamphotoSara @sarafaddah

    A Porter’s Life: Riding the Rails of Black Labor History

    A Porter’s Life: Riding the Rails of Black Labor HistoryThe morning of April 6th 1907, Ross Wood decided to fill out the application to become a Pullman Porter. He was 23 years old, and until this point he has only ever worked as a servant; a “houseboy”. Wood was born to parents that were enslaved not too long before he was born. He thought about how if he had been born just 20 years earlier, he too would’ve been a slave. He wanted to be a porter. It was a respected job among his black peers and even though he would spend his days being demeaned, the $10 a week might’ve been enough incentive. Show Notes HereSend us Fan MailSupport the showIf you have anything you'd like us to talk about on the podcast, food or history, please email us at ⁠[email protected] US ON YOUTUBE ⁠HERE⁠!Visit our *NEW* website ⁠https://www.77flavors.orgFollow us on IG:77 Flavors of Chicago ⁠@77flavorschi⁠Dario ⁠dariodurhamphotoSara @sarafaddah
