"My name is Ian. I started streaming conflict and protests on my personal Facebook account, during the Chaz/Chop times in Seattle. I started getting quite a few viewers, so I decided to start Concrete Reporting, and branch out to other platforms.
Our Youtube page is a work in progress.

In the wake of 2020’s social upheaval, I found myself at the epicenter of Seattle’s CHOP zone, disillusioned by the mainstream media’s portrayal of the events unfolding around me.
