Description

Mayor Lori Lightfoot began her final week in office with a farewell address Monday. She touted her accomplishments on spurring development on the city’s South and West sides and her handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. But there were some things she left out of her speech, too. Lead producer Carrie Shepherd and producer Simone Alicea join host Jacoby Cochran to break down the speech and discuss what we think Lori Lightfoot’s legacy will be.
