Tribute to the City and People of Chicago

In 1871, the Great Chicago Fire consumed 17,000 buildings and claimed over 300 lives. An estimated 100,000 people were left homeless. Despite it all, we endured, and that moment would become just one of many in Chicago’s rich history that has helped establish the city as an unabashedly hardworking and tough metropolis.

Robert Collyer, a Unitarian minister and famed orator, lost his home and church during the fire. While the ashes were still smoking, he summoned his people and spoke strong words of community and resilience. It was a speech that helped inspire a city to get back on its feet, to not lose hope, and to never lose a sense of solidarity among its people.
