The Sun-Times Guild and WBEZ’s SAG-AFTRA are UNION STRONG in our fights for a fair contract. We stand together in our respective fights for the pay, protections and assurances the union workers who bring you Chicago’s headlines — online, on the radio and in print — deserve.
Really important story ICYMI last week:
Purdue effectively bans grad students from China, other countries, faculty say jconline.com/story/news/loc…
A column to read today: He gave me a home. ICE took his: How I lost my father to deportation “As a Latina and the oldest daughter of three, guilt is something I often carry. Like most children of immigrants, I shoulder the expectation to make my parents’ sacrifices and migration to this country worth it. Many of us grow up watching our fathers come home in dirty clothes. Sometimes we see them for a few hours at night before going to bed. Manual labor, along with the multiple jobs many fathers and mothers take on, becomes the language of love, a warm security blanket that ensures we may have what they never did.” — Vanessa writes. From @Suntimes chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/202…
