About the Chicago Torture Justice Memorials:

The Chicago Torture Justice Memorials invites artists and those who seek justice of all kinds to submit speculative proposals for a monument to memorialize the Chicago Police torture cases. Our goal is to honor the survivors of torture, their family members and the African American communities affected by the torture. The collection of memorial proposals, to be exhibited together in the spring of 2012, will also recall and honor the nearly two-decades long struggle for justice waged by torture survivors and their families, attorneys, community organizers, and people from every neighborhood and walk of life in Chicago.
