PHOTOS: Pink is the New Black

A who's who of Chicago donned pink for the "Pink is the New Black" event held by Mantra For Good. The event highlighted and honored 14 inspiring women who are "Heroes in the Fight Against Breast Cancer." Each woman was selected because of their connection to the fight against breast cancer and because in their own special way, each of them used cancer as a journey and a catalyst for creating good. Mantra For Good was founded by Sonya Jackson (middle).
