Fader premieres “Hometown Heroes” by Frank Leone.

“‘Hometown Heroes’ is a left-brain reaction to our country’s new public face, from a white rural and black Islamic Chicago perspective,” Leone told The FADER over email. “I’ve been ashamed of where I come from, so I tell fans and blogs I’m from ‘the woods South of Chicago’ instead of claiming Monticello. I want any kid growing up in a town like mine to feel like they can take a stand against the bullshit they’re hearing.”
