so like, at what point can we finally dispose of this fiction that brandon johnson is a "progressive mayor"
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has proposed disastrous cuts to our city's libraries while setting aside $5M for a ShotSpotter replacement. As library associate Sara Heymann told me, “Libraries embody everything we need to fight back against fascism.” My piece on what’s at stake and how to fight back:

“Libraries embody everything that we need right now to fight back against fascism," says Sara Heymann.

My submission! I never landed on an exact hue I liked for the colors, but I still think it was a good design. I've seen lots of other designs I like a lot too! A lot of people did a lot of great work. The official results, I fear, did not reflect the creativity I've seen from people in these threads
You'll see reinterpreted versions of the sunrise from the state seal in many of my favorites. It's a powerful, attractive piece of existing state iconography that lends well to repurposing.
