Our next guest has become one of Chicago’s favorite urban historians. This man is a walking encyclopedia. He shares how he expanded his curiosity of the city through his time as a lifeguard for the Chicago beaches as well as being a meter maid for ComEd. We also discuss some possible solutions to the uptick in crimes committed by our youth as well as some possible solutions to the issues around the police department. Despite the negativity that the media shares about Chicago, Shermann continues to share positivity and light on areas of Chicago that are rarely highlighted. Once you gain insight into the history of a neighborhood, you can’t help but cultivate respect, pride, and curiosity for it.
