Five Bands Brotherhood Forum Series: The Discipline of a Strong Man

Five Bands Brotherhood Forum Series: The Discipline of a Strong Man has enough weekend energy to earn a spot on the board.

← See all this weekend's Chicago picks

The DuSable is the oldest independent Black history museum in the country, and this series turns its programme space into a monthly room for conversation rather than a lecture hall. The October session is built around discipline and personal development, part of a run that also covers leadership and money. Ninety minutes on a Saturday morning, with the rest of the museum on the other side of the door.

What to expect

A facilitated ninety-minute discussion session in the museum, with participants sharing experiences rather than sitting through a single speaker.

Good to know

  • The DuSable is at 740 E. 56th Pl. in Washington Park, beside Hyde Park.
  • The session runs 10:30 a.m. to noon.
  • It is one session in an ongoing forum series with further dates later in the autumn.
  • The Green Line to Garfield and a short walk east reaches the museum.
  • Museum admission is sold separately through the museum's ticketing page.

Going? Keep it.
