RIGHT: My Lincoln Square neighborhood, 2017.

In 2017, in response, we held rally led by @indivisible.org. 500+ allies.

A photo of an overgrown vegetable garden in front of the bay windows of an early 1900s brick apartment building

A photo of a two story wooden Italianate house with highly intact original details, like round widow and door tops. Its front yard is covered in a bed of prairie plants rather than grass.

A photo of a two story brick and wood coach house along an alley, accessed from the alley via a light gray painted wooden staircase that passes a little pop-out window bay on its way to a dark gray door above the garage level.

Nearly every time, I see ICE agents arresting immigrants. Today, a woman was slammed to the ground after begging officials not to take her husband away.
