Thanks to Allison Shapiro of the Daily Journal for her interest, and for presenting an accurate picture of who we are and what we’re trying to do.
Whether it left you thrilled or heartbroken, most of us agree the 2016 presidential election had a profound effect on our political landscape. Here, in Kankakee County, Jacobin Reading Group for the South Suburbs meets to discuss articles from Jacobin, the leading magazine of the far left, and to talk about what comes next.

Since January of this year, I’ve been working with others in our community to organize Connect. Our main work has been the promotion of equality and justice for friends and neighbors who are the most vulnerable and oppressed in our society.
We now have a website. Please visit and share.

He paces
With hands waving and flapping
Electric Slide
Humpty Dance
Prayer
His orange hair
pops to and fro
like a bobber
Since prison, he doesn’t like to be kept inside.
He is on this corner early every morning
and again at 3 o’clock
the hour that his Lord
gave up the ghost
He used to be a hustler
Now all he does is pray
Those who sometimes go out of the way
to pass by his corner
shout from the car
Bless you my brother
Pray for us
You know I will!
Flash of smile
Back to his duty
Electric Slide
Humpty Dance
Prayer

30 years defending poor blacks
and this undermines those efforts
his wife, in the 2012 election, denies leaking
elin nordegren
came close to brief comment:
“i wouldn’t dress up.”
he suspects that enforcement
is calling for white performers
who use black paint
for a protest
and then gag his opponents
the other republican running was part of a couple’s costume
the former lead
which began making a job that he’s not capable of
tried to explain, hearkening back to a style
to bow out of and act out
insulting black stereotypes
like a battered tiger woods.
days of slavery
persisting for decades
but what has given fuel to the president of the local 9-iron?

Hope to see you there!

The Kankakee County Branch NAACP will be co-sponsoring a townhall meeting on race, featuring the film Racial Taboo, at the Kankakee Public Library auditorium on Tuesday October 27th, 2015 from 6 to 8 PM. The meeting will be an opportunity to learn more about the relationships in our society between people of various races, to discuss the topic in small groups, and to perhaps begin to establish your own friendships across racial lines.

I’m happy to announce a project I’ve been working on for awhile now: the Chicago Southland Jacobin Reading Group.
Taking readings from Jacobin Magazine, it’s an opportunity to engage with socialist ideas in a lively, open, and non-doctrinaire environment. There are no dues to pay and no formal membership requirements. Just bring your interest, your mind and your voice. The group provides an intellectual and social space that cuts across organizational boundaries, and you don’t have to be a Socialist to join in.
Our regular meetings are planned for the third Tuesday of each month, at Feed Arts and Cultural Center, 259 S. Schuyler, Kankakee, Illinois. The first meeting is planned for August 18, 2015.
If you think you may be interested in joining us, email me to noebie@gmail.com or request to join our Google Group.
Here’s the reading group website: Jacobin Reading Group – Chicago Southland | Reading in Revolt.
