Chicagoans in the Woodlawn neighborhood continue to voice their opposition to the city's plan to place a migrant shelter at a closed school amid the historic crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border, going as far as to say migrants should be sent to Latino-majority neighborhoods.
One resident said at a protest on Thursday the migrants, who most assuredly will be from South America, should be sent to the Little Village neighborhood, a mostly Mexican area.
"I am here because I am a child of Woodlawn. I was born and raised in Woodlawn. And I am speaking on behalf of the people that are here and the ones that's not here...We are very disappointed in this decision that Mayor Lightfoot has made to place these migrants in our community without our permission," one woman told reporters.
"Please withdraw your decision to put the migrants in our community. There’s plenty of room in Little Village for their people. Please, speak to Little Village and take them over there. We are not hating on anyone but we're loving on Woodlawn," she added.
The woman said the neighborhood is already struggling with the scourge of fentanyl and "we don't need anything else to add to the struggles we already have."

Bahahahahaha…racist much?
Better a race war than a class war.
Also right next to wealthy Hyde Park, home of the University of Chicago. (Which has a long history of tacitly buying every property in neighboring Woodlawn and Washington Park that becomes available, so they can slowly expand their presence.)
I suspect the Dems’ idea is to turn Woodlawn into another Pilsen...a former Czech/Bohemian neighborhood southwest of the Loop, that became a longtime Mexican neighborhood, and is now being gentrified.
These are they same guys that go nuts when someone says “You people”??
Well that does not sounds very inclusive of fellow members of the BIPOC community.
I saw what you did there.
😆
With their people-their neighborhoods. Sounds like they want it both ways. How about THEIR country.
Are these the same folks who spent 150 years fighting for integration?
they should be sent to the neighborhoods of the liberal politicians in the area!
But you're right. White liberals are stupid too.
Go Chicago racists ... black power over those subhuman brownies!!!!!
I don’t think that any group in general is particularly fond of most blacks in this country, including immigrant blacks.
Blacks want to keep more problems out of their neighborhoods, thats wonderful
Whites want to keep more problems out of their neighborhoods, thats racist
I agee, they should be sent back to wherever they cam from. Not because I hate them, but because the broke into our home.
Hey, they’re just more targets for you to aim at.
Think about that. These people aren’t going to get to put these illegals on a bus and send them somewhere else like the wealthy did on the Vineyard.
