Happening now: outside the IL State Board of Investments meeting in downtown Chicago, activists are rallying against ISBI Treasurer & Vice Chair Michael Frerichs.

Anti-War Committee Chicago had an action-packed first year in our fight against the genocide of the Palestinian people by the Zionist Israeli regime. Starting with our first meeting in February 2024, we helped organize the Coalition to March on the DNC, and launched a state-wide divestment campaign.
