WATCH: Bughouse Square Debates recall a lost rhetorical tradition
August 01, 2011
Last Saturday I wandered down to Washington Square on Chicagoโs near north side for the โBughouse 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 Iโd use my video camera bring you along with me.
(Sorry we couldnโt stay longer. Maybe next year.) โDM
