Description
Chicago started the week on a sad note. The city had its most violent weekend so far this year over the 4th of July holiday. And, unfortunately, that led to more finger pointing by officials rather than a unified front. WBEZ Senior Producer Meha Ahmad and host Jacoby Cochran talk through that story, and also how President Biden’s visit to the northwest suburb of Crystal Lake didn’t feel quite as exciting as past presidential visits. Plus! Moments of joy that include BBQ, neighbors and Nikole Hannah-Jones!
