YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The White House is warning that Chicago is next as Donald Trump pushes to militarize U.S. cities. BT speaks with Chicago Alderman Byron Sigcho-Lopez, who breaks down Trump’s threats to send the National Guard into Chicago, ICE’s attempts to use a nearby Navy base for deportation raids, and what these moves mean for immigrant, Black, and working-class communities. He also shares how Chicago’s labor and community organizations are resisting — from mass mobilizations on Labor Day to local efforts to block collaboration with federal crackdowns.

Alderman Sigcho-Lopez represents the 25th Ward and chairs the City Council’s Housing and Real Estate Committee.
