The stakes are high. These are fraught times, from the COVID-19 pandemic’s devastating public health and socio-economic impact to essential conversations around race, class, immigration and the environment. We plan to produce journalism that bridges divides and brings more clarity and urgency to issues of concern to all people of this region. While cries ring out about the supposed death of local news, we’re working together to better serve Chicagoland with insights residents can use to hold power to account.
