Jacques Marquette Plaque | Monument Moment

There are a number of memorials and markers around the Chicago remembering the famed French explorer Jaques Marquette who visited here more than 350 years ago.         In tonight's monument moment, we visit a lonely stone slab on Chicago's South Side that seems appropriate to check out-- in winter.

Menorah lighting at Lincoln Park

The Jewish community in Chicago showing solidarity with Australia tonight.  A menorah lighting happening in Lincoln Park to commemorate the final night of Hanukkah.  People there say the lighting is a symbol that light overcomes darkness in the wake of the tragedy.
