    Silent Voices Among Us: A Montage of Chicago’s West Side

    Silent Voices Among Us is a photojournalistic series by Dr. Cranston Knight, a former public housing resident from the Henry Horner Homes in Chicago’s West Side. The photos in the series were taken between June and July 2020 in the Austin and Garfield Park communities. The project documents decades of systemic inequities put into place by unfair housing practices, school closures, healthcare access, and more.
