Local social club Stud 4 Life celebrated Pride on Chicago's South Side.
On June 25, members held their Saturday Car Parade. A celebration followed at the Wild Blossom Winery, 9030 S. Hermitage Ave.
Wanda B. started the club as a gathering place for "studs [who] don't have any family anymore because they've been disowned," she told Windy City Times in 2017. (The full interview is at https://www.windycitytimes.com/ARTICLE.php?AID=60041.)
