AS A BLACK CUBS FAN, I UNDERSTAND HISTORY AND I’M STILL HOPEFUL

BY MICHAEL STRAUTMANIS
“I think we were the only black people there,” my wife said as we were leaving Wrigley Field a few weeks ago. The sentence jarred me a bit, first because it interrupted my reverie after experiencing a rare Cubs playoff victory, and second, because it forced me to realize, once again, that I am a member of a small club. Yes, I am a black Chicago Cubs fan.
