In this Raw Cut, members of the Maroon editorial staff sit down with Jeanette Taylor, a 20th ward aldermanic canidate. Jeanette Taylor is a Woodlawn resident with activist roots in the South Side. She led a hunger strike to keep Dyett High School in Washington Park open and participated in protests with community members and UChicago students to pressure the University to open a Level I trauma center. She has also criticized the University for not hiring enough people from surrounding communities. Much of her platform focuses on creating economic opportunity for the ward without the risk of displacement; she has been a consistent supporter of citywide rent control measures as well as a Community Benefits Agreement (CBA) for the Obama Presidential Center.

In this Raw Cut, members of the Chicago Maroon's editorial team sit down with Anthony Driver, an aldermanic canidate for the 20th ward. The youngest candidate in the race, Anthony Driver has entered it with experiences working with the Chicago Mayor’s Office for Public Engagement and participating in activism in Washington, D.C. Driver’s personal experiences with gun violence motivate him to combat the issue and he said his time spent working in the mayor’s office equips him to handle the problem. One of his proposed solutions is to institute a gun disposal program at police stations. He also wants to create a 20th Ward credit union to help local businesses grow.
