Why Are CPS and the Archdiocese Beefing? Plus, Ford City Mall Ordered to Close

Hundreds of Chicago Catholic school students have found out some additional resources they rely on, like tutors, classroom aides, and after-school programs, will no longer be available through the end of the school year. Who is to blame between CPS and the Archdiocese? Well, it depends who you ask. We are joined by WBEZ’s Adora Namigadde and freelance journalist Yareni Murillo. Plus, arts events supporting Chicago immigrants and Ford City Mall ordered to close.
