So much of what is said and written about Chicago's South Side is negative. South Side Talks is changing that narrative. The South Side is more than headlines and statistics. South Side Talks brings you stories that represent ALL of the South Side. Stories of joy, pain, success, failure, humor, and everyday life. By telling these stories, it allows the residents of the South Side to be seen as they are and should be—as regular people who face life with the same ups and downs as anybody else.
