Chicago TikTok Creator Is The Windy City's Unofficial Historian
Newsy
A man hoping to educate his kids about Chicago has spun his online fame into real-life opportunities.
Shermann Thomas is a father of seven and full-time power grid operator living on the South Side of Chicago, but he's also Chicago's unofficial TikTok historian.
Known as "6figga_dilla" online, Thomas has been passionate about history since he was a kid learning from his dad, who was a Chicago police officer for more than 30 years.
But he caught his break last year after deciding to show his own kids there was more to life — and to TikTok — than dance moves.
