Welcome to "The Sit Down," a podcast presented by the Chicago Reader. I'm your host, Shawnee Dez, a Chicago-born musician and I'm excited to give you an exclusive behind-the-scenes P.O.V. from some of Chicago's most beloved creatives and community members.
On each episode of "The Sit Down," we'll be joined by a variety of guests, delving into discussions that span the spectrum of visual arts, music, food, film, and beyond. Chicago, to me, is a city pulsating with beauty, creativity, and unyielding tenacity, and our stories deserve to be told.
Chat soon, peace!
On this episode of The Sit Down, I speak to Justus Cornelius Pugh about storytelling, what it means to adopt Afro-Transcendentalism as a life long practice, and the power of writing.
