WBEZ 91.5 Chicago

For Global Activism, we talk with Alice Teisan, an avid cyclist diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in 1992. Despite her major health setback, she channeled her passion for bicycling into helping others suffering from disabilities globally. She created His Wheels International, out of her own home, recycling old bicycles and their parts to send overseas.

If you own a business or property in Chicago, the city has a message for you: grab a shovel. Now that more streets are passable, people are turning their attention to sidewalks. The city of Chicago requires that property and business owners clear their own sidewalks.
