The Attack of Lenard Clark: Chicago Divided

from Crime Story

In 1997, Lenard Clark was beaten into a coma by a gang of white teens simply for being Black in a white neighbourhood. One of Clark’s attackers was from a powerful Chicago family, with ties dating back to Al Capone. Yohance Lacour was a young writer at the time and was frustrated by the media’s coverage. 25 years later, he revisits the case in You Didn’t See Nothin, a podcast that’s part investigation, part memoir.
