The six board nominees announced Monday are Olga Bautista, co-executive director of the Southeast Environmental Task Force; Michilla Blaise, chief of staff to Cook County Commissioner Frank J. Aguilar; Mary Gardner, a prominent West Side organizer; Rev. Mitchell L. Ikenna Johnson, CEO of My Community Plan Foundation; Deborah Pope, a retired CPS teacher; and Frank Niles Thomas, former 21st Ward superintendent.

The CTU/Brandon entire press conference is well worth listening to. I don’t agree but he does a great job dishing out the CTU dogma— with the Black man being attacked by racist forces, community disinvestment, etc, etc routine.

I must admit watching this place burn down is becoming more amusing and unbelievable by the day… Who knew Idiocracy was a call to action and not a cautionary tale.
Same here. I thought it would be bad but I underestimated the damage that BJ could do. I won’t say it’s fun to watch, but relief to be gone from Chicago and IL
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
