Making the Obama Library Part of a Chicago Neighborhood
1969-12-31
Robert Nevel is president of KAM Isaiah Israel Congregation in Hyde Park, just across the street from President Barack Obama's Chicago home. So it seems natural that during KAMII's 6th Annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Food Justice and Sustainablity Weekend, one of the seminars addressed the issue of creating the proposed Obama Presidential Library in Chicago in a way that would improve a local neighborhood while embracing its history and its current culture.
