Short but profound muralist documentary about an amazing cultural (and sadly misunderstood) part of Chicago: Pilsen.
Pilsen is known for its mural art: each one is a statement about life in Pilsen or life before or after Pilsen. They’re messages to visitors and to residents; reminders about leaders and struggles. Watch this documentary from my friend Francesco about Marcos Raya, one of the first muralists.

In 2022, I am participating in two leadership training programs. This should be a social experience, so I am writing about it. Check out the full list of posts in the series here.
