I have been researching anything and everything I can get my hand on, Documentaries on the history channel, book review, pictures, editorials, old news segments, and an amazingly large amount of video on YouTube. I know why am I surprised YouTube has anything and everything on it at all times. I am still succumbing to the fascination regarding that whole YouTube phenomenon. I must say, that the amount of independent video and snip-its of film are on there and I searched and watched for hours and I have to say I felt so many things on the spectrum of feelings I don't even know where to begin.
I tried to upload a few of the videos on the blog however my attempts were not so successfull so I will provide the URLs at the end of this blog so if you are interested any of you can just click and watch. It is quite interesting.
I am going to see my father in Chicago next weekend and asked him if we could go to Cabrini Green, I don't know how he feels about that but I have shared the book with him and he seems somewhat intrigued. I havent been back there in years so I am curious to see what been done and what is left since demolition began a few years ago. Although they are only tearing down the large high rise buildings and leaving the row houses that were built during WWII (that I don't understand)
