The Sun-Times is introducing a series of guest columnists, chosen through our Chicago’s Next Voices contest, whose work we’ll be publishing.
We’ll be handing the mic to wide range of people, including a school crossing guard who gets choked up talking about the job, a woman who had the cops called to her home by someone who thought she was abusing a disabled parking placard, a trans man who is strengthened by Chicago’s embrace and a recent college grad who no longer sees the Loop as a skyline and a dream somewhere down the Orange Line but as the place where she goes to work every day.
