How many times do we have to ask for the basics?
Clean streets. Safe parks. Honest answers. A voice at City Hall that actually listens.
I’ve talked with neighbors who are tired — tired of being ignored, tired of empty promises, tired of watching our community get pushed aside while others get priority.
They’re right to be angry. I’m angry too.
For years, I’ve done what I could — organizing, advocating, showing up, even when it was inconvenient. Not because it was easy. Because it was necessary.
And now? People are asking if I’ll take the next step. If I’ll run for Alderman. If I’ll be the one to stop just talking and start leading.
I’m thinking about it. Seriously. Because this isn’t about titles. It’s about action. And I’m tired of watching Rogers Park get less than it deserves.
We deserve leadership that works for us. That fights for us. That shows up — especially when it’s uncomfortable.
Enough is enough. If you feel it too, let’s talk.
