Co-anchors Jenna Flanagan and Chali Pittman speak with local journalist Kari Lyderson about the Bring Chicago Home campaign, Chicago Teachers Union president Stacy Davis Gates, Lisa Lee of the National Public Housing Museum, and Rev. William Barber.
They turn to live speeches on the floor from Presidential nominee Kamala Harris, UAW head Shawn Fain, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortes. Plus, executive director and correspondent Bob Hennelly gives us updates from the floor of the United Center.
