Diversity and inclusion is imperative across all institutions including media. In order to progress we must change.
This is exactly why I'm being intentional about prioritizing media requests from POC reporters on the occasion of the two-year anniversary of my inauguration as mayor of this great city.
This is an imbalance that needs to change. Chicago is a world-class city. Our local media should reflect the multiple cultures that comprise it.
We must be intentional about doing better. I believed that when running for office. I stand on this belief now. It’s time for the newsrooms to do better and build teams that reflect the make-up of our city.
Have you considered segregating the reporters by skin color?
Only because you can control poc.
“Great city”
lol philly
You’re being divisive, not inclusive. Well done.
I’m so proud to read this. Waking up this morning in a Chicago ER after my third gunshot wound, I can honestly say I’ve never been prouder of my city. 
Interesting way to try to deflect the increased gun violence during your first two years, shame on you
