Over 200 People Protest Alderman Cappleman's "War on the Poor"

NA4J and our allies protested outside the Alderman's Office on Wednesday, March 6, chanting "Uptown for Everybody!" and "Housing is a Human Right, Not Just for the Rich and White!" We are protesting the Alderman's plans to push out low and moderate income residents from his ward and plans for developers to build high-cost housing available only to the wealthy.

Here are a news stories from yesterday's protest:
