He was a Black man

The first man to cheat The Indians in that region ... well done, him.

Actually M. Point du Sable already has a school, a museum, a park, and a bridge named after him in Chicago and surrounds ... deservedly so.

He was a true pioneer and a patriot, serving as a scout for America in The Revolutionary War.

Those Indians killed every Indian that came before them so karma’s a bitch.
