In case there's confusion on who we are, please read our statement! @ForthePeopleChi has existed as a grassroots Chicago artists org, emphasizing arts as integral to organizing since 2015. We're not that new group in the recent Block Club Chicago article. https://t.co/tFs2CrljPA
Today we launched Decarcerate Now: A Virtual Quilt project in collab w/ @ChiBondFund, commemorating the lives of those who died of #COVID19 while inside Cook County Jail & resists their dehumanization & disposability. https://t.co/j07SF62KJp

So excited to be a Fall 2019 grantee of the @fieldfoundation amongst such powerful and radical community! Thank you!
To date, only Cook County Board President/mayoral candidate @ToniPreckwinkle has committed to fully funding the public memorial if elected Mayor, and providing the necessary funding and support for CTJC and other elements of the reparations legislation. https://t.co/s0BDGnvyYt
ITS COLD OUTSIDE but luckily the room will be so warm and filled with the most beautiful, revolutionary Chicagoans. See you tonight!! 6pm @HairpinArts
We could also use volunteers to help us this Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday at various times before the exhibition opens! Email forthepeopleartists@gmail.com and let us know when you're available!
