WATCH: Bughouse Square Debates recall a lost rhetorical tradition

Last Saturday I wandered down to Washington Square on Chicagoโ€™s near north side for the โ€œBughouse Square Debates.โ€

The annual event pays homage to the early-to-mid 20th century tradition of quirky (and often cranky) public soap-box opining that earned Bughouse Square its nickname.

I thought Iโ€™d use my video camera bring you along with me.

(Sorry we couldnโ€™t stay longer. Maybe next year.) โ€”DM
