No more displacing black families! Tell Lori:

    I support the CBA demand to set aside affordable housing closest to the Obama Center:

    As the Obama Center is being built, thousands of Woodlawn residents are at risk of being kicked out of their homes.

    ​Setting aside ALL of the empty city-owned lots on 63rd, east of Cottage Grove, will ensure long time residents have both a safety net and  a front row seat to the opportunities the Obama Center was planned to bring. Displacement is violence. Mayor Lightfoot must show she cares by setting them all aside now!

Coalition members will reach out with the materials to get the word out and let our mayor know!
