Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.

What Pre-Slavery Blacks? Before Arabs and Europeans invaded Africa, Tribe [A] was conquering and enslaving Tribe [B]. Both tribes were Black, African. ?
Regarding history books, surely Blacks running schools and school boards know how to order Black written history books from Black bookstores, Amazon and other sources. ?
It’s doubtful, that Black schools in Chicago, Harvey and Maywood would solely use White written history books. No way! ?

It’s not a perfect accounting, nothing is perfect Mr. Ford, but for the governor of Illinois to make into law to teach the history of the LGTBQ in schools is that considered perfect, no it’s despicable to teach this to the younger children. Hum, maybe you need to go back to school and learn history, get off your band wagon.
