Time to retire that Stephen Jay Gould quote. From now on, say: "For every Michael Jordan, there's an Earl Manigault." Z will try to make NYC a place where everyone makes it. Our task is to help get him a million votes to really give it a go. The best way: canvass. zohranfornyc.com/volunteer/events

CALL PRITZKER TO DEMAND HE REMOVE ILLINOIS STATE POLICE FROM BROADVIEW: (Chicago) 312-814-2121 or 312-814-2122 (Springfield) 217-782-6830 or 217-782-6831 Hearing impaired (TTY): 888-261-3336 I called and talked about how the state cops joined ICE in brutalizing protesters today.

Happening now: at Kedzie and 40th, where Border Patrol agents just opened fire on rapid response this afternoon. A woman CFD says they found after the incident is reported in fair condition. A growing number of outraged neighbors have gathered across from ICE/CBP agents who have closed Kedzie.

This is happening tomorrow, Saturday October 4th. We will be gathering election signature petitions for some of the Chicago elected officials who have proven their worth, like @gracielaforsenate.bsky.social, and giving out KYR info. There are kick off locations in these wards: 1, 26, 30, 33, 45.

Reminder: today’s canvass begins at 10AM at 3248 W Montrose! Bonus: canvassers get whistles for ICE watch, because every canvasser, in addition to collecting candidate signatures, will act as a block watch against ICE!

Report on the emergency gathering about ICE in Chicago, held at Roosevelt HS on Saturday 21st

As I told @newrepublic.com, "Once last week, twice today, ICE has picked me up and thrown me on the ground. Honestly, it doesn’t compare to what our neighbors who are trapped inside the Broadview processing facility are going through. They’re committing crimes against humanity there."

Are you a Chicagoan that wants to get engaged with your community, but you can't make this event? Check out @33rdwardworking.bsky.social's IPO Yellow Pages and get organized with the folks doing progressive community organizing near you! www.workingfamilies33.org/get_organize...

Lots of folks in the replies and quotes saying don't RSVP to protests. They're right! Also, this is not a protest. It's a town hall organized by our northwest side elected officials and community organizers. Make the choice that's right for you!

I’ll be here Sunday to join dozens of community members in rapidly responding to the threat ICE poses to Chicago and the nation. If you live nearby, I hope you’ll join me. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Latest from Rossana in @jacobinmag.bsky.social ! jacobin.com/2025/09/trum...

Residents of Chicago’s most violent neighborhoods need investment in their well-being, not humvees patrolling them like a military occupation, writes Chicago city council member Rossana Rodriguez.

This morning the Chicago Commission on Human Relations convened a hearing to witness testimony regarding reported increases in antisemitic hate crimes in Chicago. Alderperson Rodriguez Sanchez provided these remarks as opening testimony.

Staring down the threat of the National Guard and ICE in our neighborhoods this weekend, we did what we do best: mobilize.
