The Chicago Tribune reports:
Democratic governor candidate Chris Kennedy on Wednesday accused Mayor Rahm Emanuel of leading a “strategic gentrification plan” aimed at forcing African-Americans and other minorities out of Chicago to make the city “whiter” and wealthier.
“I believe that black people are being pushed out of Chicago intentionally by a strategy that involves disinvestment in communities being implemented by the city administration, and I believe Rahm Emanuel is the head of the city administration and therefore needs to be held responsible for those outcomes. That’s what I think,” Kennedy said during a news conference about gun violence in North Lawndale.
“My belief is they’re being pushed out. This is involuntary. That we’re cutting off funding for schools, cutting off funding for police, allowing people to be forced to live in food deserts, closing hospitals, closing access to mental health facilities. What choice do people have but to move, to leave?” Kennedy said. “And I think that’s part of a strategic gentrification plan being implemented by the city of Chicago to push people of color out of the city. The city is becoming smaller and as it becomes smaller, it’s become whiter.”
The mayor’s office said it planned to issue a statement in response later Wednesday.
War within the Democrat party in Chicago! It doesn’t look good when Rahm sends his children to private schools….

What a load of cr@p!
Agenda 21 was designed to ENLARGE the city populations, not to DIMINISH them in any way (except by death… pigs & such). They want as many different races as possible in the cities… that’s their best option for starting the race war they’ve been attempting to initiate these last few years.
idiot
it like so many other large cities has become a $hithole….when I left the sales tax was at 10%… property taxes were getting ridiculous as well
I am still stuck here Mary, although not in Chicago or Crook county, I am in Kane county, which is marginally better.
