Black Star Project teams patrol to fight violence
One hundred members of the Black Star Project took to the streets of some of Chicago's most violent neighborhoods Saturday to help keep the peace.
Teams of six men each walked through several city neighborhoods, including Englewood, Humboldt Park and Uptown, to encourage young people to stop the violence. The men will continue their "Peace and Hope Patrols" twice a month, the Black Star Project said.
The Black Star Project is a group dedicated to improving the quality of life in Chicago's black and Latino communities.
