GI LFOYLE ary Dempsey and Bernarda "Bernie" Wong are pan of a long and deep tradition of Chicago women engaging in transformative M social and municipal services. From 1994 to 2012, Dempsey served as commissioner of the Chicago Public Library system. When she started, the city's public library system was, in the words of the Chicago Tribune , "the runt of the litter" among local cultural institutions. Only two libraries had Internet access, numerous branches operated out of tiny storefronts or leased trailers, and the staff was demoralized. Nearly two decades later, when she resigned as commissioner, Dempsey had spearheaded the construction of forty-four new libraries, created the nationally acclaimed One Book, One Chicago citywide reading program, and initiated innov­ ative digital-learning initiatives such as YOU media.

    Failing Our Children II. Testing - What’s the Problem with ‘No Child Left Untested’? “The statewide test bombards the schools with pressure… In the second week of school we get things from the teacher like, “This was on the test last year so listen up”… The pressure restricts teachers from doing their job… They can’t help struggling students fully understand the material because when the student starts to finally kind of get it, it’s time to move on so they can get the entire curriculum taught. … The test pressure just about kills some kids. I have never heard a student say, All this pressure from the test gets me fired up! More often, I see kids cracking. They start freaking out… the test is taking away the real meaning of school. Instead of learning new things and getting tools for life, the mission of the schools is becoming to do well on the test.” — Seventh-grade student quoted in Louisville Courier Journal, February 10, 2003 “Nancy Baker, a reading teacher at Bristol Borough Junior-Senior High School, is discouraged by the emphasis on test-taking. Her students, who used to write reports on 11 books a year, now read only eight books because they have to prepare for the Pennsylvania System of School Assessment test, which relies on short-paragraph writing and multiple-choice questions.” — “Battles Ahead over No Child Left Behind,” Philadelphia Inquirer, by Dale Mezzacappa, Toni Callas and Kellie Patrick, Nov. 18, 2003. “Accountability should not rest on a single day, a single hour, a single Texas, which gave testing situation.

  • “The Chicago Way” Casts Shadow on Mayor's Race
    SNG-Culture of corruption casts shadow “The Chicago Way” casts shadow on mayor’s race By Jim Nowlan A culture of corruption known as “The Chicago Way” has cast a shadow over at least four of the leading candidates in a field of 14 vying to occupy that city’s top job. As I have written in this space, I think the job of Chicago mayor is arguably more important than that of Illinois governor. The three-state metropolis of 11 million gathered around Chicago is one of the world’s great megacity regions. Much of Illinois is heavily dependent upon Chicago. For example, the future of Peoria and its local Caterpillar employees are heavily affected at CAT headquarters, now located in the megacity. I define the Chicago Way of corruption as unearned personal gain at public expense. The Chicago Way came to the fore recently when the U.S. Department of Justice complained that powerful Chicago alderman Ed Burke attempted to extort property tax appeal business for his law firm. He allegedly did this by offering to help a fast food business get its necessary permits from the city, which indeed he had been holding up. For maybe a century, leading Cook County (Chicago) Democratic politicians have operated a scam: The elected assessor, always a Democrat, jacks up property valuations on big properties. “Property tax lawyers” (nearly all top Democrat officeholders and party officials) then appeal the assessments in behalf of their property owner-clients. The lawyers often win big reductions in tax assessments for their clients, and thus in their tax bills.

  • Multicultural Radio's Role in the 2011 Chicago Mayoral Election
    ARBITRON WHITE PAPER Multicultural Radio’s Role in the 2011 Chicago Mayoral Election Multicultural Radio’s Role in the 2011 Chicago Mayoral Election 1 Overview In early 2011, one political story captured national headlines. Mayor Richard M. Daley, the longest- serving mayor in Chicago history, was retiring after 22 years, along with a substantial percentage of the City Council. This election had everything: a residency dispute, White House connections, a consensus African American candidate, drama and cash. The challenge of this campaign would be for one candidate to get at least 50% of the vote in the February municipal elections and not to have to face a run-off two months later. It would be a daunting challenge to generate interest for an office that mainly had been held by one political family for more than 40 of the last 56 years. Richard J. Daley was mayor for 21 years from 1955 until his death in 1976. His son, Richard M. Daley, was mayor for 22 years (1989-2011). One candidate did emerge victorious on election night and garnered more than 50% of the vote in an election with relatively low voter turnout. Arbitron examined how multicultural radio was used by the major candidates before the February election. Obviously, radio is only one component that can be used in a political campaign, and there are many other factors that contribute to and influence voter turnout. This document focuses solely on campaign ads that aired on multicultural radio. This analysis may be of interest to not only politicians, but also to agencies and advertisers as they design advertising campaigns.

  • Chicago Mayor 2019 Election Guide
    Chicago Mayor 2019 Election Guide Candidate: Gery Chico The Office of the Mayor has many responsibilities that impact those who have experienced domestic abuse, human trafficking and sexual violence, including drafting and managing a $8 billion-plus annual budget, appointing nominees to lead Chicago Public Schools and the Chicago Police Department (among other entities), and advocating for the needs of city residents. With this in mind, anti-violence experts from five Chicago-based organizations - Chicago Alliance Against Sexual Exploitation, Chicago Metropolitan Battered Women’s Network, Life Span, Resilience, and Sargent Shriver National Center on Poverty Law asked mayoral candidates to complete a questionnaire regarding their plans for addressing gender violence in Chicago. Municipal governments like Chicago have the unique opportunity to step in and support those at risk of domestic abuse, human trafficking, and sexual violence particularly because of the gridlock and divisiveness in federal government and state government systems that can directly harm those we serve. All of these organizations are 501(c)(3) nonprofits, and are nonpartisan entities that do not support or oppose individual candidates or political parties. This candidate’s response was received past the Jan. 22 deadline. No part of this Election Guide may be construed to be an endorsement of either candidate’s campaign or views by the five organizations listed above. Questions Please answer the following questions with a Yes or No response. 1. Do you support an elected school board? Hybrid. 2. Do you support eliminating the rent control ban? No. 3. Have you asked an employee, supervisee, colleague, consultant, contractor (or similar) to sign a non-disclosure agreement after learning of claims of sexual harassment or gender or race discrimination against you or someone on your staff? No.
