Crawford Audio Archives: Log of Audio Files Page 1 Archives Preview Tape #1 of 1 Cold Roll of Band Playing My Kind of The Robert P. Crawford Audio Archives contain Town...fade under for.... a rich, informative and entertaining mix of sound bites, speeches, news conferences, and interviews of political and governmental history in the making in Chicago and Illinois. The archives cover a more than 30 year span and include Mayor Richard J. Daley's defense of Chicago police in the face of criticism that they dealt too heavy handedly with civil rights and anti-war protesters: Mayor Daley was famous for his occasional Cut 1 bouts with the English Language but there was "Gentlemen get the thing.." never any doubt about what he meant to say :09 especially when he stood before the Party faithful "preserve disorder." to deny in the face of hundreds of indictments that the precinct captains in his powerful machine had turned vote stealing into an art: Cut 2 Politicians always like to encourage support by "And the phony question.." demonstrating they are human, just like the :32 voters. Some kiss babies and some, like "on themselves.." Congressman Henry Hyde, use their sense of humor: Some political leaders use a different approach. Cut 3 Mayor Jane Byrne tried to take the edge off her "I enjoy the one about.." feisty personality by mixing often with senior :24 citizens, and the archives capture the Mayor "go to Disneyland." singing along with the seniors at their annual St. Valentine's Day Party: Cut 4 Mayor Harold Washington was a great speaker "band starts then...love me..." and the archives contain many examples of his :32 charismatic eloquence. He liked to talk to college "feel so bad.." (fade before actuality cuts out) students and never failed at some point to remind young women, African Americans and Hispanics that they need not beg for the equality they were entitled to by law: 26/20/128 Robert P. Crawford Audio Archives: Log of Audio Files Page 2 Cut 5 The archives contain one of the most complete "This is our country..." collections of statements by Mayor Richard M. :13 Daley on record. Hizzonor had a habit of "knock the damn door down!" speaking from the gut and you didn't always know what was going to happen like when he defended his crackdown on unsanitary conditions in restaurants in the face of suspicion he was trying to shake down the owners for campaign contributions: Cut 6 "Well you don't want..." And there is a rare moment in the archives when :10 the Mayor got a bit peeved with reporters over "themselves down.." whether he was growing too sensitive about media scrutiny of the Daley clan: Cut 7 And what would any archives collection be "Scrutiny? What else..." without some vivid examples of one of the :12 greatest political shows in the country, the "doesn't bother me!" Chicago City Council. The "Council Wars" that took place after Harold Washington was elected Mayor are the stuff legends are made out of. Some debates got so heated that fist fights nearly broke out like the time when Alderman Bernard Stone flew into a rage over the attempts of a rival to silence him: 26/20/128 Robert P. Crawford Audio Archives: Log of Audio Files Page 3 Cut 8 The Robert P. Crawford Archives contain more "So how dare you..." than 58 hours of recorded material with over two :45 thousand separate entries from a total of 175 "quiet us..." noteworthy figures in government and politics but also from such areas as religion, the law, civil rights and sports as well. For scholars, students and people interested in the subject matter, the archives provide a permanent, indisputable, accurate record of what prominent leaders actually said on issues of the day and how they said it. And we end this preview with a political rally for Mayor Washington in Chicago's Hispanic community where the guest of honor was Senator Ted Kennedy....as you never heard him before: Cut 9 This is Bob Crawford and thanks for listening. "Alicio, Alicio....." Enjoy and learn from the archives. :45 "Mayor Washington 26/20/128 Robert P. Crawford Audio Archives: Log of Audio Files Page 4 Richard J.

  • Chicago's City Council's Increasing Independence
    Chicago's City Council's Increasing Independence Chicago City Council Report May 7, 2003 – November 15, 2006 Authored By: Dick Simpson and Tom Kelly University of Illinois at Chicago Department of Political Science December 27, 2006 1 In our earlier study of the Chicago City Council, from May 7, 2003 until December 7, 2005, we highlighted the Council’s newly found independence. In this last year, from December 15, 2005 to November 15, 2006, there has been increasing independence in city council voting. During the last eleven months there have been 20 divided role call votes, approximately two per month. The average aldermanic support for the mayor on these key divided votes has decreased slightly from 84% to 83%. More importantly, the mayor lost the “Foie Gras Ban” and the more critical “Big Box” ordinance, which for the first time since he was elected in 1989, forced him to use his mayoral veto. His father, Richard J. Daley, did not have to use the mayoral veto during his 22 years in office. On the other hand, Mayor Harold Washington used his veto powers frequently during his first four-year term. This Mayor Daley’s near total control of the previously rubber stamp city council has been weakened by the continuing patronage and corruption scandals. He has faced growing opposition at the grassroots, including labor unions, community groups, and organizing in the minority communities by previous and current mayoral candidates Jesse Jackson Jr., Luis Gutierrez, Dorothy Brown, and Bill "Dock" Walls. Five major issues have dominated the city council in the last year: (1) foie gras ban in restaurants, (2) aldermanic pay, (3) minimum wage requirements for large retailers (“Big Box Ordinance”), (4) a requirement for hotels to inform guests of a hotel workers’ strike, and (5) the downtown parking garage deal.
