Chicago teachers have created and shared plans for whistles to support school and neighborhood safety patrols. (Maybe we used school printers, maybe we didn’t.) Proud to wear one made by a @ctulocal1.bsky.social STEAM teacher!

27 CPD officers tear-gassed by ICE in one incident, 13 more yesterday, and Chicago FOP President John Catanzara is nowhere to be found. Maybe if they gassed a statue of Columbus. (photo by Anthony Vazquez, Chicago Sun-Times)
