“You want to honor John? Let’s honor him by revitalizing the law that he was willing to die for.” - @BarackObama Congress, y’all can start here with these marching orders. No excuses.

"I urge the entire city council to have a heart and to pass CPAC. CPAC can put US the COMMUNITY as a council to finally investigate police officers that have acted without regard for the rights of human beings and to hold them accountable." Mark Clements, Torture Survivor
Moreover, Chicago needs to #MemorializeChiReparations because it was promised in the Reparations legislation passed in 2015. Five years later and with a new mayor, we have still yet to obtain the unequivocal support needed to make the memorial a reality.
Just as providing financial compensation to the Burge torture survivors, creating of the Reparations Won CPS history curriculum, and establishing @chitorture in Englewood all served a unique purpose in the reparations package — so does the memorial.
The memorial is a key part of a larger reparations package passed in Chicago City Council in 2015 that sought to provide holistic repair to Burge torture survivors and shift conditions so that the violence does not repeat.

@UWFIllinois @48Ward Is there a reason your name is absent from this list of Alderpeople? #CPACNow
It’s once again the first of the month and countless Americans still have no means to pay their bills or make rent. RT if you agree we need to pass my bill to provide Americans with $2,000 monthly payments throughout this pandemic.
We need an elected school board, and we need #PoliceFreeSchools. These fights go hand in hand.
I am noticing a pattern. Chicago needs an elected school board that's accountable to our communities now.
