Black Excellence in the World of recreational sailing. On Chicago's southside, The Jackson Park Yacht Club has possibly the largest membership of African American mariners in a U.S. Yacht club. This story is about a group of African Americans in the #JPYC who have broken records and pushed through societal barriers in recreational sailing. One of whom is the first African American to sail the world solo via the Cape Horn route. This story highlights members of both the JPYC and focuses on the crew of the cruising division sailboat, Mies En Place. The Mies En Place crew was the first predominantly African American crew to step on the podium to receive an award in the #ThisChicagoYachtClubs race from Chicago to Mackinac Island, Michigan.
Listen to the experiences of these sailors and share their stories.

As one who loves Sailing, it was amazing to see this video and to open the mind of people that we can sail too.
Granddaughter of Commodore Frank A. Garner here… remember the club so well, found my peace there. Thank you for bringing the club and its rich Chicago history to this platform 💝
Thank you for commenting (and watching), and thank you for this bit of info!!! Granddaughter of Commodore Frank A Garner. Fantastic :)
Feel free to share this so others may learn of this rich Chicago info :)
So excited to find you site. I am a new sailor in Seattle wash with grand ideas of expanding the African American sailing community here. You guys are an inspiration.
Let them know. Hit up the Jackson park yacht club. And feel free to lmk about what you are doing so I could come to Seattle and feature it for a brown passport story.
Hi Richard, where did you get into sailing in Seattle? Asking for my bf who is moving here and would have a similar mission as yours mentioned here and is interested in getting started in sailing! Cheers @richardgraham5788
I'm so glad to see African American sailors I want to get on the ocean and learn how to sail
Great story Samantha!
Thanks for bringing us this story! We would have never heard it otherwise!
:) your welcome. Please share, and subscribe. this way I build the numbers up here, more people will know about this adn also the other videos. Not to mention then I woudl build up my Patreon and help fund more projects. thus far this is entirely on credit cards which bills are now due LOL
This is great, hope to see many more...
more to come :) also, quite a few up already and even more special footage via my Patreon, launching in a couple of days.
@39:50 The comment that the woman wearing the polo shirt that says President said that a minority person would not just stop at a yacht club " oh I wonder what they're doing on a Saturday. hmmmmm That is EXACTLY what I did. HAHAHAHA I moved to Virginia near the Potomac, and I searched for sailing clubs in the area, and I went to their social sail activity one day. I was and still is one of two black people in the club. I joined the club and became a skipper!! :) That was a very generalized comment that she made. AND I'm not Baptist. haha Great program though. Happy to see fellow Black Sailors. Oh I race too... plus coach/volunteer at the Special Olympics. I'm just getting started.... eh. It's a beautiful hobby!!! Love it.
Fascinating story, excellently told. Glad Brown Passport is getting the audience it deserves!
very excited to see this!
Thankyou. I worked so hard on the (four years) through the loss of one of my best friends (seen in this video) and the loss of another dear friend (interviewed and seen in this video on the boat). If you like what you see, please feel free to share :) Still building this audience...hopefully big enough that I can finally pay my credit cards from producing all of this as a One woman band and keep these stories coming :)
I want and need to do my part…I’m a full time liveaboard cruiser from Hutchison Island out of Ft Pierce Florida. I was introduced to the life 2 years ago while on tour with Nelly and Snoop Dogg. I’m the youngest black man in the area, I’ve been searching for a black community like this to be a part of in Florida.
Thank you for posting this…
XOXO thankyou for sharing! Let's go sailing :)
This was so beautiful!!! Governments and politicians make policies, but people make communities of citizens. LOVE HIM
@@leonfeingold2948 sadly he passed away last year while working on a Nat geo documentary... RIP capt bill pinkney
Shared this to everyone I communicate with. This is the type of positive luxury activities I want see made. Black people doing cool and positive things that show us as complex and diverse people. Great content.
I am creating more :) Thank you for watching, sharing and commenting. It helps when times get rough and you get pushback such as when I showed NABS (National Association of Black scuba divers story - also on this channel two videoprior to this one' and NBS National Brotherhood of Skiers (one video prior to this one) some folks just asked me last week 'why do you need anything like that'. It's so frustrating to know folks still ask this!!! It's because representation matters, and I think they don't understand that it's more stories like these we need instead of the negative stuff, and instead of a company trying too hard to show though it's out of force and not genuine. We still have a long way to go :)
I like this man full of life
I can see this marina from my living room window just across the golf course. I want to learn how to sail and will be looking to take lessons soon. I'm glad I found this video!
Amazing work, Samantha. Excited to see more stories.
Loved it!
ONE LOVE FROM PUERTO RICO...
I grew up in Chicago and visited all of the beaches from the Northside to the Eastside daily! I've been on a lot of different kinds of boats, but sailboats have never done it for me! I must do this before I leave this earth!
I love to see us where many do not see us. Thank you for sharing. It is inspiring. Moon
Bravo!
TY :) I would love to get this shared on a broad scale. Often times networks wand to show their narrative yet it's not the narrative of those involved. It's often times a perspective of what said company or media what to place it or how they want to present it. Feel free to share :) thnx for watching.
Hey, great vid! This is great Sam
☺️☺️☺️ luv to see it!!!!!

Let's get you started. samantha@samiamphoto.com
"long periods of boredom interrupted by terror"! I cracked up when she described sailing like this mainly because that is my experience as well, lololol. I just never felt like I could admit it!
