The following podcast is an interview with North Lawndale native Willie “Prince Roc” Round. Mr.Round has been very vocal about the way North Lawndale has shaped him to be the determined man that he is today. Being a multi-talented creative in music, playwrights, and films has really set him apart as a creative entrepreneur. It has landed him opportunities to partner with organizations like Collaborations where he has been able to grow his talent as a videographer and actor. One of his films that was featured in the Collaboration Peacebook event was titled “This Is North Lawndale.” The video depicted North Lawndale in a positive light and showcased the resilience of the community during the covid-19 pandemic and a heightened attention on social justice in America.
