This week on the Barber Shop Show, we heard about a project through the Jane Addams Hull House Museum called “Making the West Side: Community Conversations on Neighborhood Change". Though a series of community programs, Hull House is working to document and celebrate the West Side: Past, Present, and Future.
For that discussion, we heard from:
• Jennifer Scott, Director of the Jane Addams Hull House Museum
• Yolanda Knight, Program Officer at the Steans Family
Foundation. Plus, we heard from
• Rufus Williams, CEO of BBF Family Services.
Plus, we’ll revisit a story about business owners that hide their blackness for the sake of their bottom line.
For that conversation, host Richard Steele spoke with:
• Cheryl V. Jackson, Business and features journalist at the Tribune
• and Joni Jackson, assistant professor of marketing at Chicago State University.
