❌ Today, for a second quarter in a row, City Council has ghosted CTA at the quarterly hearings THEY mandated by law.
This is profoundly unacceptable, particularly as we are rapidly racing toward a critical deadline for NITA board appointments that will have to be approved by Council.

Severe weather possibilities return to the same locations today as storms are possible from the Southern Plains to the Great Lakes. Follow forecast updates from your local NWS office to stay ahead of the storm

I'm a 57 year old college educated man.
I learned about the Tulsa race massacre from a TV show 6 years ago.
Schools have been very selective about the history that is taught.
That's just one of the reasons why this matters.

Despite the academic capitulations, media collapse, and Trump's attacks on history and race, it's now more important than ever to teach on all of these issues.
So I will.
I have set up an independent course to teach Race, Media and International Affairs 101 and 102 in October.

That’s deep 🤔
👀 The McCook reservoir is currently 91% full of stormwater. This "gorge" is nearly 330' deep and the far wall is about 1/2 mile away from the camera.
Here's a link to the live view and more information about the TARP project > mwrd.org/what-we-do/t...
