Dear Readers,
The Chicago Reporter is an historic publication founded on the heels of the Civil Rights movement that does critical investigative reporting on issues of inequality with a depth of coverage not often found in traditional news media.

Glenn’s experience and his profound respect for the mission of the Reporter make him ideal to lead the paper during this unprecedented time in our nation’s history.
A little about Glenn: He comes to the Reporter with decades of experience as a journalist, with deep roots as a reporter at The Chicago Defender, Ebony Magazine, and the Chicago Crusader covering Black and Brown neighborhoods and issues like police brutality, poverty and politics.

He’s is currently the Publisher/Founder of DePriest Voters Chronicles and Beyond, providing coverage and analysis about politics, government and civic engagement in the 17 primarily African-American wards in Chicago.
