This weekend, Chicago rolls out a powerful bike and bus tour to honor the 1919 race riot — a pivotal, violent chapter sparked by the drowning of 17-year-old Eugene Williams in Lake Michigan. Now, 38 handcrafted memorial markers — made by youth who’ve lived through violence — stand across the city, telling the story of resilience, resistance, and enduring community spirit. The tour, open to all ages, weaves through Bronzeville, Bridgeport, and beyond, reminding us that history isn’t locked in archives — it’s alive in the streets, and still shaping our present.
