A Decade In Review: From Pop Culture To Politics, The Biggest Moments of the 2010s

WBEZ brings you fact-based news and information. Sign up for our newsletters to stay up to date on the stories that matter.

As the year winds down, we’re also closing out the decade. Goodbye the 2010s, hello 2020.

But before we ring in the new year, we want to take a look back at the biggest stories and moments of the last decade. And there were some big ones: the world saw the Arab Spring. The invention of the iPad. The rise of Black Lives Matter. Instagram. And of course: the Cubs winning the World Series.

Reset takes a jog down the 2010’s memory lane and remembers the highlights of the last decade.
