Episode: Ashley Johnson Blends Creativity And Community
Description: Ashley Johnson is a Chicago community activist, DJ, fashion designer and more. Johnson fell into her three prominent passions organically; she grew up always aware of community support and mutual aid (though not by name), and found a deep love for both DJing and fashion design during her time at Columbia College. Though she’s lived in many cities across the U.S. and beyond, Chicago’s cultural significance has always drawn Johnson back home to her roots. This is what her Chicago sounds like.
