My students live in three blocks from the precinct where John Burge carried out decades of torture on innocent black men and women. Help us teach a Reparations Won curriculum informing students about his actions and those of others in their choices to act in malicious ways using their power in a broken police system here in Chicago. We want students to have a place to let out emotions they feel during this curriculum and in having a book with fictional characters in a fictional place we see an opportunity to take the hate society throws at them into a belief they can change the system.
