</div><p>Melinda Subido and her daughter Kristine, the co-owners of Pecking Order, a Filipino cuisine catering brand, said they have been selling at farmers markets for the past eight years, relying heavily on the sales from the Logan Square and Andersonville markets. </p><p>Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Melinda Subido said the duo has lost 80% of their annual revenue to a drop off in sales and added expenses. </p><p>Pecking Order used to serve its food hot, but due to safety guidelines, Subido said everything is now sold frozen or chilled in microwavable containers. </p><p>“Before, most of the time people [would] go around and eat,” Subido said. “It’s more fun. The sense of smell makes it more exciting.”</p><p></p><p>Jasmine Sheth, founder and chef at Tasting India, a weekly meal delivery service focusing on different Indian regional cuisines, began the business a year ago after she was laid off from work because of the pandemic. </p><p>Sheth said the brand is people-of-color- and female-owned and aims to break stereotypes by shining light on lesser known Indian cuisines. Tasting India also creates its own spice mixes, including masala chai, cardamom coffee, goda masala and East Indian masala. </p><p>“There’s so many people that order my menus every week that I don’t get to meet because of COVID-19,” Sheth said. “This is a nice opportunity to showcase the breadth of what we do beyond the weekly menus, talking about the spices and influences from India.”</p><div class="Enhancement" data-align-center>

</div><p>Virgil Roundtree, founder of Downstate Donuts, which sells doughnuts made from potatoes and organic ingredients from local farms, said the company was essentially launched though farmers markets more than two years ago. </p><p>He said although business has been tough during the pandemic, the business was able to quickly pivot to an online delivery system. </p><p>“Events, catering, things of that nature—which were a huge driver for the business—evaporated pretty quickly,” Roundtree said. “So we had to get very intuitive in figuring out ways to reach our customers directly.”</p><p>Located on Catalpa Avenue between Clark Street and Ashland Avenue, the Andersonville Farmers Market will be open from 3 to 7 p.m. every Wednesday until Oct. 20. Entry from 3 to 3:30 p.m. will be reserved for visitors over age 60 or who are at increased risk for contracting COVID-19. </p><p>The farmers market still offers a hybrid shopping experience, with the option to visit the market in person or order from vendors online for pick-up on Wednesdays. Customers can pre-order items from Thursdays at noon through Mondays at 11 p.m. using the WhatsGood app or <a class="Link" href="http://sourcewhatsgood.com/" target="_blank" >website</a>. </p><div class="Enhancement" data-align-center>

<p>Against a backdrop of bright pink tulips, protesters stood outside Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s Gold Coast home on Friday with flowers, signs and a painted piece of cardboard that read, “Dear J.B., on this Mother’s Day, set our loved ones free.”</p><p>That oversized Mother’s Day card included demands that Pritzker sign clemency petitions to for prisoners they say have been wrongfully incarcerated and that he stop construction of a new youth prison at the Lincoln Developmental Center.</p><p>Denice Bronis, an Elgin resident and member of Mamas Activating Movements for Abolition and Solidarity, said her son Matthew Echevarria, in prison for 22 years after being convicted of murder, contracted COVID-19 at Menard Correctional Center and still exhibits long-term symptoms.</p><p>“Mother’s Day is just as much a day of love as it is a day of pain, especially for those who have experienced forced separation from our children, our loved ones, by the state,” Bronis said.</p><p>The Illinois Department of Corrections started allowing in-person visits at all correctional centers on Monday, provided COVID-19 safety regulations are followed. During Phase 1 of its <a class="Link" href="https://www2.illinois.gov/idoc/facilities/Pages/VisitationRules.aspx" target="_blank" >visitation plan</a>, set to last for 60 days, physical contact is not permitted and clear plastic barriers separate incarcerated individuals and visitors. </p><p>Kiah Sandler, a Bronzeville resident with the End IL Prison Lockdown Coalition, said although the group’s demands have shifted since <a class="Link" href="https://chicago.suntimes.com/2021/2/22/22295393/illinois-governor-jb-pritzker-criminal-justice-reform-bill-cash-bail-police-bodycams" target="_blank" >Pritzker signed a sweeping criminal justice reform bill</a>, there is still work to be done by the governor. </p><p>Sandler said the coalition is asking Pritzker to lift that ban on personal contact during in-person visits, and also to grant more clemency requests to “set loved ones free with the stroke of a pen.”</p><p>“We just want people to be able to feel safe, we want families to be able to be families again,” Sandler said. “We want to honor the strength and resilience of those moms, caregivers, and chosen family who provide care across the bars and walls of prisons here in Illinois.”</p><p>The Mother’s Day card, signed by dozens of mothers, loved ones and supporters of those in prison, was shoved under the black metal gate in front of Pritzker’s mansion. A few protesters used the home’s intercom to alert the governor to the delivery — and repeat their demands. They received no response. </p><div class="Enhancement" data-align-center>

</figure>
<p>A woman who worked aboard the Shedd Aquarium’s research vessel has sued the aquarium for sexual discrimination.</p><p>Susan Catherine Edgerton alleges in a federal lawsuit that she experienced sexism and was subjected to inappropriate comments, extra duties and double standards while working as the hospitality coordinator aboard the Coral Reef II.</p><p>The 80-foot Coral Reef II is used as a basecamp and laboratory for Shedd Aquarium field researchers. It is based in Miami and travels along the Bahamian archipelago, allowing scientists to conduct open-water studies. </p><p>Each year the boat takes college and high school students from the Chicago area to the Bahamas to study reef and island ecology.</p><p>Edgerton, of North Carolina, was hired in April 2018 to oversee food service, housing and hotel operations on the boat and help with its departure, arrival and maintenance. She was the first female crewmember hired to work on the Coral Reef II.</p><p>She was fired in May 2019 without being given a reason, according to the lawsuit filed in federal court in Chicago.</p><p>“This is one of many examples of a very male-dominated industry that my client had a really bad experience in with respect to her gender, and her treatment as a woman was really sexist and inappropriate,” said Jennifer Salvatore, a partner at Salvatore Prescott Porter & Porter.</p><p>Edgerton alleges her male co-workers used derogatory words like “b——” when referring to women. They also allegedly commented about her appearance. Edgerton alleges she was disciplined for her dress while a male coworker wasn’t for the same infraction.</p><p>The lawsuit says Edgerton was injured when she was ordered to jump from the deck to the concrete dock 15 feet below and help anchor the boat.

</div><p>Suzanne Akhras Sahoul, founder and executive director of the Syrian Community Network, said the campaign is especially important under a new presidential administration with travel bans on Muslim-majority populations being lifted. </p><p>She said while previous policies were hurtful, it has been a relief to see people rallying behind Muslim communities. </p><p>“The type of solidarity that we saw from our fellow Americans, whether they were Christians or Jews or Hindus or Sikhs or any other faith — or no faith — was really inspiring and moving to us,” Akhras Sahoul said. “We’re hoping that we can come together in this campaign to continue building the relationships that have been formed in the last four years because we don’t want to lose those allies.” </p><p>Mitchell said the campaign in Chicago and other cities nationwide is set to last four weeks and outreach efforts will extend “well beyond the month of Ramadan.” </p><p>In Chicago, the grassroots campaign cost about $25,000 and was paid for with donations from individuals and different mosques around the city. </p><p>The campaign’s billboard on I-294 by O’Hare Airport features a dinner plate fashioned as an alarm clock and reads, “A month of more than just fasting.” </p><p>GainPeace Director Sabeel Ahmed said a large part of “Ramadan — A Month of Healing & Hope for Humanity” is sending postcards and gift bags to connect with neighbors and raise awareness about Ramadan. </p><p>Ahmed said GainPeace is encouraging Muslim families and children to create and distribute customized gift bags with sweet treats, a coffee mug and informational pamphlets about the holy month to neighbors. Ahmed said his sixth-grade daughter created GainPeace’s official Ramadan blessings card. </p><p>“At the end of the day, we want to show to our fellow Americans that Islam is not a threat but a blessing for humanity,” Ahmed said.</p><p>By the end of Ramadan, he said the Muslim community will have given out more than 2,000 gift bags in the Chicago area and sent 50,000 postcards to people across the U.S. </p><div class="Enhancement" data-align-center>

<p></p><p>Jetta Norris Jones grew up in a time when famous Black women role models were few. </p><p>By the end of her life, she had become that role model for others, fulfilling her parents’ wishes that she break barriers.</p><p>And so she did, becoming the only Black woman in her class at Yale Law School and the first Black woman trustee of the Art Institute of Chicago.</p><p></p><p>“Her priority always remained advancing the well-being of the African American community,” said Denise Gardner, chair-elect of the Art Institute Board of Trustees. “She really turned out to be quite a role model for me ... and I used to marvel at the way she was able to effect change. She was quite good at it.”</p><p>Mrs. Jones, 95, died April 9 in her daughter’s home in Los Angeles. After being diagnosed with dementia, she moved there in 2013 to stay with family. </p><p>A lawyer and art enthusiast who “could connect with everyone,” Mrs. Jones lived in Chicago for 60 years and held numerous prominent positions in the city. She served on the Art Institute’s Leadership Advisory Committee, the Women’s Boards of the University of Chicago and Northwestern University, and the Lincoln Park Zoological Society Board of Trustees. On a national level, Mrs. Jones was a board member of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund.</p><p>Teri Edelstein, former deputy director of the Art Institute, said Mrs. Jones was instrumental in bringing together African American community members to create the Leadership Advisory Committee and implement the museum’s $5 million audience development grant. </p><p>Edelstein said Mrs. Jones seemed to be close friends with everyone, and would ask those she knew, like Lerone Bennett, executive editor of Ebony magazine, to join the team. </p><p>Gardner said Mrs. Jones, who she saw as a mentor, brought her on the committee to serve in a marketing role.</p><p>“I was touched by her spirit, and she seemed like the kind of person that was really going to make things happen,” Gardner said. “She’s left quite a legacy.”</p><p>Mrs. Jones mobilized the committee members with grace and kept the group functioning to perform community outreach, Gardner said. </p><p>“She had a very powerful way of coming to good decisions in a way that was accepting of everybody’s point of view,” Edelstein said. “As someone who I relied upon tremendously, that was her great strength. As a friend, she was one of the most loving and wonderful people that I’ve ever known in my whole life.”</p><p></p><p>Born in Philadelphia in 1926, young Jetta grew up in the city, later attending Mount Holyoke College before Yale Law. Her father, an attorney, urged her to give up pursuing a career as a child psychologist in favor of legal studies. </p><p>Courtney Moore, Mrs. Jones’ youngest daughter, said her mother moved to Chicago because she was intrigued by the politics and wanted to pave her own path. </p><p></p><p>Upon arriving in Chicago in the early 1950s, she worked for the city and a few aldermen before becoming a member of former Mayor Harold Washington’s cabinet as the director of external affairs in 1983. </p><p>In 1953, she met Dr. James “Jimmy” Jones at a party in Chicago after being introduced by a mutual friend. Moore said they complemented each other intellectually, sharing a “great sense of humor” and a love of art. The two were married for over 50 years. Dr. Jones, who worked as an OB-GYN with University of Chicago Hospitals, died in 2006.</p><p>Mrs. Jones and her husband were active in the Hyde Park-Kenwood area, interacting with the local community of contemporary artists and becoming friends with gallery owners.</p><p>Edelstein said the Joneses’ three-story house in Hyde Park was filled from the basement to the attic with art pieces. </p><p>“Art was a very big piece of our life growing up,” Moore said. “My parents were avid collectors with a very eclectic appetite for art.” </p><p>Before moving to Los Angeles, Mrs. Jones donated several items to the Art Institute, including an African <a class="Link" href="https://www.artic.edu/artworks/152860/ceremonial-weapon" target="_blank" >ceremonial weapon</a>, an African <a class="Link" href="https://www.artic.edu/artworks/152861/mask" target="_blank" >mask</a> and a painting by AfriCOBRA artist Nelson Stevens which is on display in the exhibition titled “<a class="Link" href="https://www.artic.edu/exhibitions/9324/bisa-butler-portraits" target="_blank" >Bisa Butler: Portraits</a>.”</p><p>“She loved Chicago, she thought it was a greatest city in the world,” Moore said. “She loved the energy. She loved the beauty. She loved that it had such a strong representation of African Americans who were doing great things whether it was in government or private industry.”</p><p>Following a visitation last month at Unity Funeral Parlors, Mrs. Jones was buried at Oak Woods Cemetery, next to her late husband.</p><p>Besides Moore, Mrs. Jones’ survivors include two other children, Julie Simms and Josh Jones, as well as several grandsons and great grandchildren. <br></p>

<p>Morgan Urso tried many sports as a young child and didn’t like any of them. Everything changed at age 10 when she went to hockey practice with her brother.</p><p>“I ended up loving the game,” Morgan said. “The feeling of the fresh air hitting my face every shift is a feeling that I’d take any day.”</p><p>Now a high school sophomore, Morgan’s zeal for the game took a hit when her club hockey team unexpectedly banned her from practice, games and team activities.</p><p>The Urso family, who lives in La Grange, recently sued Team Illinois Hockey and the Amateur Hockey Association of Illinois for disability discrimination, claiming Morgan was suspended after she told a coach about her mental illness.</p><p>During her freshman year in 2019, Morgan experienced a severe depressive episode, resulting in her going to an outpatient program and being given new medication.</p><p>Morgan said her coach, Team Illinois Hockey Director Larry Pedrie, was initially supportive. “He said if I needed to be an assistant coach on the bench with him or if I wanted to go out and skate or miss, I could do whatever I needed to,” Morgan said.</p><p>Morgan’s mother, Kelly Urso, said she received a call the next day and was informed that Pedrie had spoken with Mike Mullally, USA hockey director at the Amateur Hockey Association of Illinois, and they had decided to bar Morgan from all Team Illinois practices, games and other activities.</p><p>“I remember saying, ‘What?’ a lot, like, how did he decide this,” Urso said. “He just kept saying, ‘I have [Team Illinois’] full board support, this is what AHAI has advised us to do.’ I ended up hanging up on him because I got so emotional.”</p><div class="Enhancement" data-align-center>

<p>When the doorbell rang at his family’s Oak Park home earlier this month, 4-year-old Max Pratt ran outside to see what had been delivered.</p><p>It was a package twice his size — and when he tried to pull it inside, it tipped on top of him.</p><p>Luckily, UPS driver Marco Angel had not yet made it back to his truck; he heard Max cry for help and and sprinted back to the house. In seconds, Angel was pulling the 97-pound package off a stunned but otherwise unharmed Max.</p><p>“He was scared,” said Max’s mom, Traci Pratt, recalling the April 17 incident. “He knew that he never wanted that to happen again. I think he saw all four of his years flash before his eyes.” </p><p>At the time, Pratt said she was upstairs watching Max’s 2-year-old sister, Lily, when she heard noises outside. By the time she carried her daughter downstairs, Pratt said, Angel and Max were standing in the front doorway, looking visibly shaken. </p><p>Pratt said she didn’t fully understand what had happened until later that day. That’s when she watched the scene unfold on video recorded by their doorbell camera — and felt a rush of gratitude to Angel for stepping in when he did. </p><p>To showcase the act of kindness, Pratt shared the video with the Oak Park Moms Facebook group, and the story quickly spread. </p><p>“There’s so much darkness in the world,” Pratt said. “And people, especially coming off the year that we’ve had, just need some bright light. So I wanted to share it with our community.”</p><div class="Enhancement" data-align-center>

<p>Shouts of “we are Adam” echoed outside the office of Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx as community activists listed their demands for justice in the shooting of 13-year-old Little Village resident Adam Toledo.</p><p>On Thursday, Little Village activists, members of Black Lives Matter and other advocates gathered at 69 W. Washington St. to criticize Foxx and prosecutor in her office who failed to present all of the facts of Adam’s case during a bond hearing.</p><p>Baltazar Enriquez, a Little Village leader, called on Foxx to publicly apologize and file a capital murder charge against the officer who shot Adam on March 29.</p><p>Enriquez added her group has submitted complaints about Foxx and Assistant State’s Attorney James Murphy to the Illinois Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission and want Murphy’s license revoked.</p><p>“Shame on Kim Foxx for not defending her people,” Enriquez said. “We put her in office, and we’ll take her out of office ... We are not playing games. Charge the officer now, arrest the officer now.”</p><div class="RelatedList Enhancement" data-module data-align-center>

<p>Sitting in her home and sifting through thousands of negatives and photos of prominent LGBTQ activists like Daniel Sotomayor and Dr. Ron Sable, Tracy Baim had a searing memory of taking some of the last pictures of key figures in the queer rights movement while they were still alive and fighting.</p><p>Although Windy City Times “probably should have shut down a decade ago,” co-founder and co-owner Baim said the media outlet has persevered in spite of financial difficulties, mainly by relying on the kindness of strangers and personal sacrifice.</p><p>“The entire time I’ve been doing this, the money has been the hardest part of doing the work,” Baim said. “Everything else comes easy. I love telling the stories, taking the photos and doing the video. Telling the stories of the lives of people who are often ignored in the mainstream is the greatest honor.”</p><p>Windy City Times has been covering the LGBTQ community in Chicago for more than 35 years. Although the publication ended its print run last fall - the COVID-19 pandemic became the “final nail in the coffin” - its online site is still going strong.</p><p>The publication was founded in September 1985 by Baim and her co-workers Jeff McCourt, Bob Bearden and Drew Badanish, who left their jobs at GayLife newspaper to start Windy City Times.</p><p>At the time, the HIV/AIDS epidemic was in full swing, and there was a large movement to pass gay and lesbian rights legislation.</p><p>Baim said because most media outlets were not doing an adequate job of covering the LGBTQ community and its struggles, the responsibility fell on Windy City Times to offer persistent coverage of the gay rights battle, attending public meetings, protests and marches, and letting readers know where to go and who to call.</p><p>“It was really critical for our community to have our own voice … to have media that was vying for our community,” Baim said.</p><div class="Enhancement" data-align-center>

<p>Coronavirus vaccinations will resume next week at Loretto Hospital in a city-run clinic, the Chicago Department of Public Health announced Friday.</p><p>The new vaccination site will be focused on serving residents of the hospital’s Austin community, according to a health department news release.</p><p>On March 18, the health department had halted the delivery of vaccines to Loretto, 645 S. Central Ave., after reports surfaced that the hospital had vaccinated 72 ineligible workers at Trump International Hotel & Tower, where the hospital’s chief operating officer, Anosh Ahmed, has a condo.</p><p>That was followed by other revelations about vaccination events, culminating with Ahmed’s resignation in late March.</p><div class="RelatedList Enhancement" data-module data-align-center>

<p>At the time, the city health department had said the pause would continue until a full accounting of all vaccine-related activities had been completed and it could confirm the hospital’s vaccination strategies and reporting practices met all department requirements.</p><p>The hospital released what it called some “key findings” from that audit on Friday. According to the audit, the hospital has so far administered 15,700 vaccinations and, of those, 99.2% went to residents deemed eligible per city guidelines and 70% went to people of color (compared to 58% citywide).</p><p>Around 60% of all vaccinations were given to Chicago residents and 31% of vaccines were given specifically to those in the Austin neighborhood. </p><p>Loretto’s new on-site clinic is set to open Wednesday, and the city will manage all operations, including vaccination registration, scheduling and reporting all vaccine administration to the state’s I-CARE system.</p><p>Clinical staff from Loretto will administer the vaccine and work with local organizations to ensure Austin residents have access to the clinic. The city will assign an engagement and outreach coordinator to work with Loretto staff to reach hospital patients and Austin residents. </p><p>“Our goal is to get this lifesaving vaccine to the residents of Austin and their neighbors on the West Side who have been disproportionately impacted by the pandemic,” said Dr. Allison Arwady, city health commissioner. “After reviewing the full accounting of past vaccine administered, and after multiple productive discussions with the team at Loretto about our expectations, we are ready to work in partnership with them.”</p><p>Loretto President George Miller said he is grateful for the second chance to participate in Chicago’s vaccination program, and he looks forward to addressing gaps in access to vaccines for people of color.</p><p>“While mistakes were made that I wish could be undone, I take full responsibility for those actions as president of this great hospital and have given my word that we will not find ourselves in this situation again,” Miller said. </p><p>The site will run Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from noon to 6 p.m. and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Austin residents over age 18 can book a vaccination appointment for free, and one’s proof of address will be required on the day of the appointment. </p><p>Those eligible for the vaccine can sign up for an appointment by calling 312-746-4835 <a class="Link" href="https://events.juvare.com/IL-IDPH/9jft8/" target="_blank" >or by registering online.</a></p><p></p><p></p>
