“A Record of our Time. Speechless. I knew this was going to be a special render, but I didn’t fathom how visually impressive this would be. I didn’t fathom how emotionally impressive this would be. I didn’t fathom how viscerally impressive this would be. Well Done.”

Introduction:

During the first half of 2020, Americans endured the COVID_19 Crisis, quarantine, massive loss of lives and historic unemployment. Then the death of George Floyd, yet another unarmed black man, dead at the hands of police became too much for the citizens to bear. The people rioted across the country, property was looted and destroyed. Soon store owners would board up their looted or vulnerable businesses. Afterward, the local artist used those blank wooden boards as canvases to express themselves. This book with over 200 color photographs, specifically arranged to tell our collective story, resulted. Welcome to...Boarded Up Chicago.
