Today’s Actions:

10AM:
Tent City at Oprah’s Studio:
HARPO Studios
110 N Carpenter Street

Oprah is a sellout.

She has endorsed the Chicago 2016 bid for the Olympic Games, which
will cause massive displacement and gentrification of the south side
of Chicago.

Despite her empathetic statements on the plight of poor people she
collaborates with the pirating elites of this city, and deserves to be
called on it.

The Coalition to Protect Public Housing is taking their “tent city”
action to HARPO studios tomorrow morning to draw attention to Oprah’s
support of the Olympic bid, and her disregard for the poor and
homeless of this city.

5:00 -7:00pm:
Environmental Justice Vigil
Meet at the bean.
Sponsors: RAN Chicago, LVEJO, Communities of Faith
