About this episode
The murder of George Floyd last May sparked unrest across the world, including in Chicago. There were a lot of images on the news last summer of looting, damage, and neighborhoods trying to recover. Photographer Vashon Jordan, Jr. captured those moments. But he also found ways to highlight moments of celebration: people sharing food with one another, listening to music and dancing. Jordan's images spread through his thousands of Twitter followers, and he’s collected more than 100 of those photos in his book, “Chicago Protests: A Joyful Revolution.” Guest: Vashon Jordan, Jr., Photographer, “Chicago Protests: A Joyful Revolution” ( @vashonjordanjr ) Follow us on Twitter: @CityCastChicago Sign up for our newsletter: chicago.citycast.fm
