Silke Weineck The students protesting the killings in Gaza provided space to walk around. There was no obstruction of the Fair. The counter-protesters were waving their flag, laughing, jeering. And then DPSS started attacking the Pro-Palestinian students, unprompted.

Elon Musk and some prominent right-wing social media accounts widely circulated claims that dozens of migrants with guns and motorcycles “took over” a South Side apartment in Chicago. The claim was bogus, police and the area’s alderperson said. More: blockclubchicago.org/2024/09/03/no-…

Again, read credible, local journalists. I beg yall. Please stop believing everything you read on social without doing a fact check with a credible source. Armando is doing the work. Follow Armando. Unfortunately, lies spread faster and wider than the truth.
