Jane Lynch leads a gleeful tour of Illinois, the actor’s home state – Washington Post

For the “Middle of Everything” campaign, the award-winning actor traipses around the Prairie State wearing a jaunty blue beret and a gleeful expression. Playing the role of official tour guide, the Illinois native comes face-to-hologram-face with Honest Abe at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum, gets her kicks at the Illinois Route 66 Hall of Fame & Museum and waddles with penguins at the Shedd Aquarium.

Chicago needs more champions of literacy like Willie Wilson – Wirepoints

It’s rare to see city leaders in Chicago take an open, unabashed stance on the collapse of literacy. To complain is deemed as too political, too racist or too anti-public schools. So it’s refreshing to see Willie Wilson, a successful businessman and leader of the black community, call for a literacy initiative “with the goal of getting 100% of Black students reading at grade level.”
