CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Pritzker signs bills aimed at economic access, equity in employment, contracts, cannabis industry: ‘Hope is in the air’ The governor signed four bills that were part of the Black Caucus’ legislative agenda aimed at addressing economic equity in the state. – Rachel Hinton (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, Democrats shout at minorities that Republicans have caused all the problems that minorities have.)
https://chicago.suntimes.com/2021/3/23/22346596/illinois-cannabis-equity-commission-state-contracts-diversity-black-caucus-jb-pritzker
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Lt. Gov. Juliana Stratton said the “issue of inequity has grown over the decades” but, with Tuesday’s bill signings, the state is “now able to talk about solutions.” “In America, systemic racism has been infused into our economy from the very beginning and, too often, the amount of money you make, the apartment or house you can afford, whether or not your business stays open depends on your race,” Stratton said. “[These bills are] just the beginning. The fight for economic justice continues, and there is much work to do.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Cancel culture as practiced by Big Tech will go “very, very far” because Americans “underestimate how beholden to these companies we all are,” Wall Street Journal contributor Abigail Shrier told “The Ben Domenech Podcast.” . . . I’ve interviewed people who have been canceled, where they lost Facebook … because they did something controversial and not even — in some cases it was an accident and whatnot. And Facebook shut down their account, and those were the only pictures they had of their mother who has now passed,” she said, calling it “absolutely as terrifying as the government arresting you.” “So people are, however brave they seem, everyone is quietly inching to one side because they’re afraid,” she said.)
