A way for Black and Latino communities to unite

Thank you to the Suntimes for this poignant and timely Op-Ed. 
Thank you to everyone who has held this work with care and courage. We owe gratitude to the ancestors, to community voices unmuted, and to the everyday acts of bridge-building that happen quietly, faithfully, in our streets and homes. 

Chicago is beautiful in its cultural preservation, home to the DOPEST artists and educators, yet complicated by deep inequities. Black families in our city face poverty rates nearly three times the overall average, and Latino families also carry disproportionate burdens in access to jobs, services, and opportunity. 

The net worth gap between Black/Latino and White households here remains a stark reminder of structural exclusion…and yet, in that terrain of inequality WE STILL STAND… we keep striving. 

We are stronger together. Join us for the National Day of Racial Healing and let’s listen to one another’s powerful stories. Click the link tree in our Bio to register. One Love. ❤️
