Endurer Unleashes “My City Visual” Featuring Jeronimo
Chicago is a great city but if you only viewed it through the lens of the media you would think that it’s all bad. If there was a time to shine light of the positive aspects of the city this would be it. Chicago Artists The Endurer and Jeronimo just premiered “My City” which is an infectious anthem that reminds us that Chicago is not simply some violent place from the headlines but a city rich in local treasures. Check it out below and share! We need more anthems like this to balance out the narrative.
America First Caucus
Anytime I hear the term #AmericaFirst I always think of a time when citizens were marginalized and terrorized under the Caste system that America has in place. Those who promote America first are often of European ancestry and are intent on keeping strongholds based on racism in place and keeping everyone else in their places which just happens to be under them. The 45th President of United States used this kind of rhetoric to galvanize voters to get into office. When others of the same mindset saw that a reality show personality and a man with a track record of shady dealings was able to obtain power and attempt to undo many of the policies that put many people on the same playing field they ran for offices and won. Four years after his Presidency those that rose during his tenure are at work to wind the clock back once again. They are using the same tools that he used. Theories of those who identify as “White” Americans losing power are at the forefront of new efforts to suppress others. Unsubstantiated accusations of election fraud are used to rile people up and block others from being able to exercise their right to vote are at play. Whenever the America of the old days is mentioned it almost always is referring to times where equity among its citizens did not exist. Currently Congressional Representative Majorie Taylor Green is at work trying to build infrastructure to take America back to a time where equality was scarce. We cannot allow years of effort, achievements and the blood of so many that have fought for justice to have been done so in vain!
Take a look at the document that states what the agenda and viewpoints of the caucus are.
