Storytelling Workshop: Streets Calling

Having become an avid biker since the start of the pandemic, Justin Swinson joins the Streets Calling Bike Club, a Black-owned cycling club in Chicago. In “Streets Calling,” he explores what the bike club does for people – and for himself, as he documents his first ride with the group and interviews long-time members, as well as other newbies.

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