I was reading the Red Eye one day and I saw an article about a series of inspirational messages written in chalk along Chicago’s Red Line. Interested in this, I did some research and set out to find the group responsible for the messages receiving such high positive feedback from Chicago commuters posting the pictures on Twitter and Instagram with a #ChalkTheBlock hash tag. Little did I expect I’d have a night of chalking with some of the most genuinely inspirational people I’ve ever encountered.

I just submitted an article thats soon to be published for print, so I don’t want to spoil it. But I did make a quick video preview as well as some raw pictures I took the evening I took part in the Chalk movement.
