Existential Fight, Part II

At the suggestion of a Chicago’s Ukrainian Community leader, I traveled to Washington, D.C. to cover four days of events surrounding the third anniversary of Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine. On Monday and Tuesday I headed to Capitol Hill with the group as they lobbied senators and House members on behalf of Ukraine. Here are my thoughts about and images from Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday.

Existential Fight, Part I

At the suggestion of a high-ranking member of Chicago’s Ukrainian Community, I traveled to Washington, D.C. to cover four days of events surrounding the third anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022. On Saturday, I attended the rally at the Lincoln Memorial, and then the demonstration in front of the Russian Ambassador’s residence. On Sunday, I attended a reception at Ukrainian House, and then witnessed the candlelight vigil in front of the Russian Embassy. In a subsequent post, I will discuss Monday and Tuesday’s lobbying effort.

Illinois State Fair

I spent two days at the 2022 Illinois State Fair last week, attending Governor’s Day and Republican’s Day, as well as enjoying the celebration of the Illinois’ agricultural industry, the Midway, the harness horse races, the assorted exhibits, and even some of the food, including the ice cream. Here are my thoughts and the images I captured.
