Subject: [OccupyCU] Housing discrimination in Champaign - 7pm 6/25 city
 council study session
Message-ID: <36d62f15-a4fa-df5f-d32a-21c8de983af9@gmail.com>

Tomorrow evening 6/25, at 7pm, the Champaign City Council will hold a
study session, looking at a discriminatory ordinance it had passed in
the 1990s.    If you can, especially if you live in Champaign, please
come out and at least let the Council know the public cares about this.

The Champaign law, "section 17-4.5", specifically allows landlords to
discriminate against people incarcerated within the last five years.  It
doesn't matter that their sentence is complete, it doesn't matter what
their current situation is.  They may be fully capable of paying the
rent and being a good neighbor to their fellow tenants - the landlord
can reject them based solely on that history.

The landlords in town generally want to keep this law.   They control
some 55% of all the housing in Champaign - a lot of power over the fate
of formerly incarcerated people.

Some 700+ signatures have been gathered, by the Fair Housing Coalition
and others, asking for section 17-4.5 to be repealed.


Urbana does not have this carve-out to their anti-discrimination
ordinance.    This doesn't mean that Urbana landlords don't discriminate
based on past incarceration - certainly some do, and it's even written
into the rental agreements for some rental properties.   But at least
Urbana has a law which could be used to challenge those policies. 
Champaign doesn't even have that.

[1] Back in the '70s, both Urbana and Champaign passed
anti-discrimination laws.    In 1994, Champaign amended its
discrimination law to allow this specific kind of discrimination.

[2]Since this is a study session, they're not offering a chance for the
public to speak before the Council's discussion.   However there is a
chance to speak afterward.

[3]Here's the agenda for Tuesday at 7:
     http://documents.ci.champaign.il.us/v/1W7f-2oLv7euIlajhsKseyUVQXAgmRdWN
with details here:
     http://documents.ci.champaign.il.us/v/1PwZzZsOzlpbHNyqL-efVLXPIlSGtuIWT

<http://documents.ci.champaign.il.us/v/1PwZzZsOzlpbHNyqL-efVLXPIlSGtuIWT>    
"The Administration requests that the City Council provide direction to
staff on whether to draft modifications to Section 17-4.5 of the Human
Rights Ordinance for consideration by Council at a future Regular Meeting."

Subject: [OccupyCU] July 4th parade - we're in. Signmaking 11am-1pm Sunday,
 probably in IMC Makerspace downstairs
Message-ID: <d099be8e-9cd0-a526-a7eb-3843fe9d22c0@gmail.com>

AWARE has a pro-peace/anti-war/anti-imperialist slot in the July 4th
parade - we're in! [*]

We have some signs but should make more.   If we're ambitious and have a
good idea we could try to paint a banner.

Let's have a signmaking party.    I'm suggesting this time and
(probable) place:

    Sunday 6/30, 11am - 1pm or so
    probably in the Makerspace space in the downstairs of the
Independent Media Center
   
If you have ideas for signs but can't make one, please let us know.[*]  
I've set followups to peace-discuss, or you can write to me.

(There might be another chance for signmaking together on the Wednesday
evening of the 3rd.)

Who would be up for marching?

I think at least Carl plans to drive his convertible.   Carl, if we have
some posterboard signs is there a way we can attach one to your car?

[*] The year's parade theme is supposed to be "Flight in Space", for the
50th anniversary of the moon landing.

Deb Schrishuhn suggested, Peace should be as American as apple pie.   I
like this line! and included it in our parade application.   We should
make a sign that says so.

Confirming July 4th signmaking, and how to get there:

     Antiwar signmaking party *today*, Sunday, 11am-1pm or so,
     Makerspace area in the basement of the IMC

Getting there:
     See this video!
        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtVYBwzWRjY

     Or: Come to the alleyway between the IMC and Lincoln Square (south
side of IMC).
     Near the radio tower, there's a set of cement steps leading
downward.   A bicycle marks the doorway.
     Walk through the door, and take the first leftward hallway you see.
     Straight at the end of that hallway is the Makerspace.

     Come make some signs for July 4th!

     We have markers, foam core, posterboard.

Happy to drive my little convertible (the Mighty Miata) in the parade (esp. because I don’t think I’m up to walking the route this year).

And I’m not a furnish-fetishist - we can tape signs to the MM as space allows.

Perhaps we can find a way to fly the US flag with peace symbol that we use on AWARE ON THE AiR. (We’d need a flag pole attachable to the car)
