Heartache and Hope on Chicago's Streets | 12.13.23

from Morning Beat: Chicago · host Morning Beat

Today's episode weaves a tale of a city grappling with the complexities of gun violence, as a teenager falls victim near a CTA station and a community mourns the loss of two relatives in Chicago Lawn. Amidst the sorrow, a glimmer of cheer surfaces with former President Obama's surprise Santa visit to a South Side school. Plus, we explore the mental health benefits of saying 'no' during the holiday frenzy and a unique court sentence aimed at teaching empathy.
