Loved your video and the music too. Lived in Rogers Park from 1938 to 1970. I'd love to come 'home' but, unfortunately, that probably won't happen. I can still visit on You Tube though, thanks to you and others.....
Very cute video!! Great job!! (And for the record Coklan - I'm a Republican but hardly a right wing nut - living up here for 2 years has only made me more ready for GOP change and less entitlement!)
If someone makes a cool song & video about Roger's Park & it is, it's perfect, but someone is going to say it's depicted as lily white...let me write a song:Everythings fine in RP we got free rent called section 8, people selling crack at the L from morning til late, sex offenders taking up alot of space, there are homeless & hookers all over the place, we got mouliyans, single moms, LGBTQs we got drugs & crime & Loyola U...everything is getting to be fine in RP.
I love Rogers Park! It is without a doubt the best most diverse neighborhood in Chicago. I only hope that the news does not get out or it may just be spoiled by conservatives. If you are thinking of moving to the RP and you find yourself voting GOP, please consider Naperville... ; ) Just kidding… Even right-wing-nuts are welcome in the RP, but beware… your heart may change.
I completely agree with TheNora50, for Rogers Park to be the most diverse neighborhood in the country it seems that you go out of your way to depict it as a lily white pseudo-liberal artist commune. The hoaky "down home" Garrison Keillor style song makes it even worse.
Hey Mary and Neil! Excellent video! Makes me wish we lived in Rogers Park....hey wait a second...we do!!! Ain't we lucky!! - Nancy and Marshall

great photos, but almost no Black or Latino faces? Where is the great Rogers Park diversity?
