By Nora Paul| Chicago Reader Verified Three dancers stand far upstage, lit by dim lights and with their backs to the audience. To their left, three dancers lay on their sides. As the upstage dancers slowly—joined step for step—turn to face front, the dancers on the floor sit up to reveal that their faces are covered by their jackets’ hoods. Center stage, a dancer pulls hers down to finally reveal her face.
By Nora Paul| Chicago Reader Verified Behind a time stamp with the date “20 02 2001,” a line of blurred lights shudders. Overlaid, as if from a composite of two photos, a woman’s face appears. So does a camera. Voices are matched to these reflections against the glass. The glass door slides open, revealing the lights in the night.
Company Info
Chicago Reader
The Chicago Reader is an alternative weekly newspaper that has been a significant part of Chicago's cultural and political landscape since its founding in 1971. It is known for its fearless journalism and strong community ties, initially serving the city's countercultural demographics, including artists, musicians, and activists. The Reader has transitioned from a print-focused model to a hybrid digital and print operation, continuing to provide critical political analysis and cultural criticism. The Reader offers weekly print editions and daily online content, featuring investigative reporting and event listings. It collaborates with freelancers and independent outlets to amplify marginalized voices, supported by initiatives like the Accountability Journalism project. The paper has also published special projects, including a commemorative book celebrating its history. Under new leadership, the Reader emphasizes equity in staffing and coverage, focusing on issues affecting communities of color and immigrants, while remaining community-supported through donation drives and campaigns.
