Although Windy City Black Pride did not have a festival, Chicago Windy City Black Pride (CWCBP) did, holding its annual event at (fittingly) Rainbow Beach July 1. It took place a little later than usual because of rain; however, people ended up having loads of fun.

Hundreds attended the event that local entertainers Mz. Ruff-n-Stuff and Otis Mack co-hosted. Photos by Vern Hester
