SeanBlog | New Film, "A Most Beautiful Thing" Documents How Rowing Brought Rivals Together: Gangs in the Past, Police & Community Today
September 9, 2020. As a former rower myself, this story really caught my atteniton and inspired me. A new documentary, A Most Beautiful Thing, shares the story of the Manley High School crew team, the first black high school rowing team in the US and how rowing helped addressed gang violence in Chicago in the early 2000s. The team's reunion and preparation for the 2019 Chicago Sprints included a new element of community healing, police officers.
Skyler Aikerson reports on the film in the June 2020 issue of Chicago magazine, in his article A crew to remember.
NBC's Kate Snow shares the story of the unique partnership with the Chicago Police Department in her story, Rowing Together for Change (video below).

September is National Prostate Cancer Awareness Month in the US where one out of every nine men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer. For an interactive map of rates of prostate cancer around the world, along with rates of other cancers, visit the PRI Global Cancer Map.
The Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCF) created the Eat It to Beat It challenge for the 2020 Prostate Cancer Awareness Month to invite supporters to eat 30 healthy foods in 30 days. Visit the challenge website to take pledge and join many others in making health choices and raising awareness about prostate cancer.
Extra kudos to PCF for their annual Blue Jacket Fashion Show each February that brings together the fashion, entertainment, sports, and media worlds to raise awareness and funding for prostate cancer research.
