CHICAGO—(ENEWSPF)—March 17, 2016 – Political freedom has been at the forefront of our minds as we engaged in #ByeAnita actions, street-team canvassing, phone-banking and voter education events focused on young Black voters to remove the anti-Black Cook County State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez.

Alvarez consistently resisted the call to serve in a way that showed she held those in consideration that are most affected by state violence.
