	Maxwell Street Polish - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A Maxwell Street Polish consists of a Polish sausage topped with grilled onions and mustard on a bun.
		The "Maxwell Street", as it is commonly known, originated in Chicago's famous Maxwell Street marketplace, an open-air market that ran on the city's near South Side from 1871 to 1994, as a dish offered by the market's street vendors.
		The Maxwell Street Polish soon grew to be one of Chicago's most celebrated and recognized native dishes, along with the Chicago hot-dog.

	Talibanization of Maxwell Street
		Maxwell Street is part of the history of the blues, yes, and as such in some part belongs to all of us.
		Maxwell is a painful symptom of our inability to come to grips with the importance of our past and, therefore, we find ourselves adrift without tangible roadmaps to tell us where we came from, where we are and, therefore, where we're going.
		As part of this, we are in a situation where the street musicians, the vendors, the remnants of what it meant to be alive in a city actively intertwined with others are vanishing.
