Binga: The Rise and Fall of Chicago's First Black Banker - Second to None: Chicago Stories
Don Hayner
The definitive full-length biography of Jesse Binga, the first black banker in Chicago. Born into a large family in Detroit, Binga arrived in Chicago in 1892 in his late twenties with nothing. Through his wits and resourcefulness, he rose to wealth and influence as a real estate broker, and in 1908 he founded the first black-owned bank in Chicago.
