WHO'S CHICAGO? - MARCH 2020
Printed March 8, 2020 in South Side Weekly.
This past week, our mayor made some truly naive comments about Pilsen “thriving” more than it had 10 years ago, completely overlooking the evictions, the rent hikes, and the property buyouts it took to FORCE Pilsen into being more palatable for “good businesses” and white people.
This city is one giant turf battle and I’m not just talking about the gangs. Those are scraps being tossed out by the bigger gangs of corporate heads, career politicians, and lawless landlords who are scarfing down the whole plate. Chicago til Chicago ends but we better fight for this city and fight hard before it ends up in the hands of those who only wanted it when we put in the work to grow it #iykyk.
