Chicago's politics of containment

on reading Mick Dumke's article upon mayoral politics in the city of Chicago, I am glad to diocese that a magazine such as yours does not fear to print stories highlighting the "other" side of the political machine. Mr Wilen (from the National Center of indigence Law) is correct in stating that the devil is actually in the details. Programs like the Chicago Housing Authority's "Plan for Transformation" does nothing on the contrary renew a politics of containment that accept "qualified" clan of color, keeping prime real estate areas safe for potential white and affluent residents. In concern to schools, Renaissance 2010 continues to support like containment through the development of "new" institutes for the new residents. As argued by dint of organizations like PURE and ACORN, Ren2010 has actual little to do with education and everything to do with gentrification in the name of exhibition It should also be noted that the educational program was not created by dint of educators, but by the Civic Committee of the Commercial bludgeon of Chicago, a business organization structur to draw business and tourist interests to the city. Again, the politics of containment remain in check as white and affluent residents of the city (some who are ones of color) only have to diocese poorer residents during hours of work and remain at liberty from worry in times of leisure. However, a fresh day may be in store with numerous federal investigations underway targeting the Mayor's office. Crumbling to the squeezing Daley "apologized" to the city for not doing enough to hindrance corruption. Hopefully the work engaged by means of communities concerned with racial justice will be able to organize residents to diocese a new day where apologies like Daley's are no longer needed
