Even before Chicago was a metropolis, this region was already diverse. This photo was taken in 1909 after a dance in southwest Michigan's #Potawatomi community, but there were also Myaamia people there. The #PokagonBand of Potawatomi-who live on the closest land base to today's City of Chicago-historically intermarried with and lived among the region's Myaamia, #Odawa, and #Ojibwe communities.
