Join us for an online discussion about environmental challenges in Chicago’s Southwest Side at The Environmental Justice Exchange, a virtual event series that is co-hosted by the Chicago Sun-Times. Learn how neighbors came together to fight against McKinley Park’s asphalt plants and inspire a vision for land development, planning, and development.
The live stream will be available in English and Spanish.
Join Brett Chase, Chicago Sun-Times reporter for environmental, planning, and public health, and other special guests in the conversation:
- Alfredo Romo is the executive director of Neighbors for Environmental Justice
- Jackie Montesdeoca, McKinley Park resident
- Anthony Moser is a founding member of Neighbors for Environmental Justice
You can tune in live at 6:00 p.m. CT on Wednesday February 16, 2022.
