“Chicago makes you do the work. I’m not talking just about the concept of “hard work,” although that certainly applies. And I’m not saying that Chicago is not great, or that it does not exceed stereotypes. But it makes you do the work. It makes you find the the things you want. And it makes you build these things, if you want them to happen, little by little. Chicago to me has always been a working class city and it is because of this idea that so much of what happens here feels like the result of a million hands digging deep into the work, getting dirty, and leaving worn out yet satisfied.”

Britt Julious explores why young artists and creators leave Chicago.
This is fantastic. Britt is an incredibly skilled writer and she wrote about one of my first loves, Chicago, and why people leave the city. I remember my cab ride to O’Hare the day I left. Kinda hit home.
