Jean "Gigi" Pritzker
Lincoln Park resident and president of the board of the Chicago Children's Museum, Jean "Gigi" Pritzker claims those opposing the Children's Museum's proposed relocation to Grant Park are racist.
".... in an interview Wednesday, Pritzker, 45, vowed to continue to press for the Daley Bicentennial Plaza site despite opposition by some neighbors and Ald. Brendan Reilly (42nd). While not all who object to the project are racist, the theme is there, she said."
"The thing that's sad is the loudest voices -- it doesn't mean the whole community -- seem to have that component to them,'' Pritzker said." Is Children's Museum feud racial? Key player says yes :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Metro & Tri-State |
