Funny thing about listening. You can actually hear people talk.
That’s what happened on August 18 at Passport Project. Neighbors talked and neighbors listened. I can’t say that everything was pleasant. Many of us are frustrated with some aspect of the Buckeye neighborhood.
The first day of school at Harvey Rice Wraparound is this coming Monday.
To mark the occasion, Tanese Horton, the school's coordination manager, threw a "Welcome Back to School" festival.
Rice Library branch manager and all-around-talented-guy Ali Boyd joined in the festivities, playing drums as some incoming students joined him on vocals.
Listen to their sounds below!
At the corner of Buckeye and East 117th, Ego Adigwe runs Som Di Mma Elegance, a beautiful shop filled from floor to ceiling with clothing, jewelry and carvings from her home country of Nigeria, as well as from Senegal, Mali and India.
She was kind enough to take a few minutes to share a little about her background with us ... and to demonstrate how she crafts hats right from her storefront.
