Pinqy Ring and Eli Schmitt join host Raina Douris

Hip hop artist Pinqy Ring felt somewhat distant from her Puerto Rican heritage as a kid in Chicago. After a dramatic turn of events, that all changed. On the next World Cafe, hear how she became the role model she always wanted and found the community that she loves. Plus, DePaul University student Eli Schmitt gives a peak into the Chicago indie scene he is helping to nurture.
