SUMMARY:African American Civil War Soldiers Honor Roll - Call for names
DESCRIPTION:Dear Friends and Community Members\, \nAcross Chicago\, countless stories of courage and service remain untold. Among them are the legacies of Black men who\, during the Civil War\, donned Union blue and fought for freedom—not only for themselves\, but for generations to come. \nOver the past two years\, Bronzeville Historical Society has encouraged family historians and community members to look closely at their family trees\, to uncover the names and stories of these patriot ancestors. Already\, a few names have been shared with us: \n\n• Enos Bond\n   Nero Cooper\n• Henry Slaughter\n• James Jackson\n• Charles Griffin\n   Mack Reese\n• Zach Bell\n• James Taylor\n• John Litre\n            and more….\nThese men’s sacrifices deserve to be remembered\, honored\, and taught. That is why we are developing a special exhibit that will feature images of these soldiers alongside their biographies. This project will be a lasting tribute\, ensuring that their names live on and inspire future generations. Bronzeville Historical Society is collecting names of African American Union Soldiers of the Civil War\n\nthrough December 2025.  The names will be added to an exhibit proposed for Illinois250 programs in June 2026. \nWe now turn to you. We invite Black Chicagoans to contribute the names of their Civil War ancestors who served. Whether you have a photograph\, a document\, a family story\, or simply a name passed down through the years\, we want to include your ancestor in this historic effort. \nTogether\, we can weave a collective tapestry of remembrance—one that uplifts our community’s role in shaping the nation’s history.\nPlease send names\, stories\, or photographs to: Sherry Williams \n\nEmail: bronzevillehistoricalsociety@gmail.com\nor by mail at 4455 S. King Drive Suite 103\n\n                        Chicago\, IL 60653 \nLet us honor our Civil War heroes by making their bravery visible. Their courage made our future possible; now it is our turn to carry their memory forward.

SUMMARY:Chicago Flamenco Festival 2026. Irene Morales Raw
DESCRIPTION:RAW is a daring flamenco performance featuring dancer Irene Morales\, whose movement brings ancestral intensity into sharp dialogue with the present. Rooted in Granada and shaped by Spain’s foremost stages\, Morales embodies a dance language that unites precision and instinct\, control and vulnerability. The work seeks a state of essentiality—a flamenco pared down to its core\, where gesture\, sound\, and silence uncover emotional truth. Through the interplay of electronic textures\, live instruments\, and visceral rhythm\, RAW opens new terrain for flamenco while remaining grounded in its pulse. Morales’s presence gives form to a living tradition—immediate\, luminous\, and profoundly human—where flamenco is not fixed in time but continually rediscovered through the body. \n  \nIrene Morales began her formal training at the Conservatory of Granada before moving to Madrid to continue her studies at the prestigious María de Ávila Superior Conservatory. During her time in the capital\, she combined her studies with performances in several companies\, including those of Miguel Ángel Bernal and Rafael Aguilar\, and most notably in 2019\, when Eva Yerbabuena invited her to join the production Lorca y la Pasión with Marina Heredia\, presented at the Generalife Gardens. This marked her return to her hometown of Granada. With remarkable artistic maturity\, Irene has been performing since the age of 18\, both as a solo artist and with her own company. \nPhoto Copywrite: Juan Pascual
