About this episode
Welcome to the show! In this FREE episode L.B. recounts a recent experience driving (or sitting) in the chaotic traffic that has now become a regular feature in Chicago around Mexican Independence Day. He contrasts his story with one told and published by the Chicago Tribune by a local activist who bemoaned being “profiled” by the police who were forced to close roads. LB also discusses the new show format and looks back on the last 3 years of the Been Awake Project.
