Emerging from an ancient culture and<br />
developing over centuries — at the<br />
crossroads of the “silk road” and other<br />
trade routes between East Asia, the<br />
Middle East and Europe — Chaldeans<br />
brought traditions of trade to Michigan,<br />
when they first began to settle in the<br />
Detroit area a century ago.<br />
Part of a year-long initiative to share<br />
the Chaldean Story, this forum will<br />
explore the roots of the Chaldean<br />

stories about the generational influence<br />
