Storytelling Workshop: Seguimos Esperando

Nancy Valentin asks why Chicagoans of color have to wait and ‘do the most’ to bring attention to issues and get basic needs met in their communities. Here, we meet residents of Belmont Cragin trying to bring about change but being met with circumstances beyond their control.

This segment was produced by Nancy Valentin for Vocalo’s Fall 2022 Storytelling Workshop. Vocalo’s quarterly Storytelling Workshop returned this Fall with seven segments produced by community storytellers, uplifting the voices of individuals who add to the rich cultural diversity of Chicago.
