More than half of U.S. tenants can't afford their rent. Here in Chicago, thousands — tens of thousands by one measure — are experiencing homelessness. To complicate matters, the city continues to struggle to find shelter for the more than 35,000 migrants who have arrived in Chicago since August 2022. Reset goes behind the scenes of Evicted, a new exhibition at the National Public Housing Museum in Chicago with its Executive Director, Lisa Yun Lee, to shine a light on national housing policies and tenants' rights.

The story of public housing in Chicago is often a one-sided narrative about deteriorating buildings, crime-ridden corridors, drug trafficking and public aid. But for the last 15 years, former Chicago Housing Authority residents and advocates have sought to shed light on the full stories of these once-vibrant communities by creating the National Public Housing Museum. Leaders recently broke ground, and the museum is slated to open next year at one of the former Jane Addams homes in Little Italy. We talk with Crystal Palmer, a former CHA resident and leader on the museum's board, and Lisa Lee, the museum's executive director, about what to expect.  Nominate City Cast Chicago for Best Podcast and Hey Chicago for Best Newsletter in the Reader's Best of Chicago 2022!

This episode, "Everybody Needs Somebody to Love," celebrates a resident from the ABLA (a group of public housing projects consisting of the Jane Addams Homes, Robert Brooks Homes, Loomis Courts, and Grace Abbott Homes) community, the late Mr. Wilbur Farley. If that name sounds familiar, perhaps it is because he has appeared many times in different ABLA oral histories we have gathered. Known as “Mr. Fix-It” for his ingenuity and helping neighbors with small repairs, Mr. Farley was such a hugely influential and important member of the community that “Mr. Farley Day Back to School Celebration and Party” (as it was originally called) was created in 1984 by the ABLA community. The oral history narrators featured in this episode are Al Buford, who lived in the Jane Addams Homes from 1955 until 1990, Marquita Gandy, who lived in ABLA from 1973 to 2009, Godfrey Bey, who lived in the Jane Addams Homes from 1956 to 1983, and Byron Dickens, our next narrator lived in the Jane Addams Homes from 1966 to 2001. Read the transcript here. CORRECTION: The narration of this episode states that Marquita Gandy lived in the Jane Addams Homes from 1973 to 2009. The episode notes have been edited to reflect the correction, that Marquita Gandy lived in the greater ABLA Homes complexes from 1973 to 2009. All but one of the buildings of the Jane Addams Homes were demolished between 2002-2008; the last remaining building is being preserved for the National Public Housing Museum's permanent site thanks to efforts by ABLA resident activists.

As a part two to last week's discussion on self esteem, Skye and Amanda read The Alter Ego Effect by Todd Herman and discuss what it means to use our imagination to unleash new, confident versions of ourselves. The two define what an alter ego is and how it can take us from operating from our trapped self who lives in fear and self doubt to living within our heroic self, the self who knows who they are, takes the chances and reaches their goals. Each of the ladies discuss the main area of their life where they see the need for the alter ego and begin to imagine who their alter ego is - from name to characteristics to how they show up. Books mentioned in this week's episode are linked to our Bookshop.org shopThe Alter Ego Effect: The Power of Secret Identities to Transform Your Life by Todd HermanCheck out what Skye & Amanda have been loving this week:The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On on NetflixThis week's ‘Bout That Action! highlight is: My Project RunwayCheck out Through The People: a collaboration between My Project Runway and the National Public Housing Museum to showcase the stories and images of public housing residents.

The Geography of Home includes interviews with artists and curators who use research and historical data to shed light on inequities for Black homeowners and residents of public housing. Our first guest, Tonika Lewis Johnson, is a photographer, social justice artist and life-long resident of Chicago's South Side neighborhood of Englewood. She is also co-founder of the Englewood Arts Collective and Resident Association of Greater Englewood, which seek to reframe the narrative of South Side communities, and mobilize people and resources for positive change. Tonika's art often explores urban segregation, documenting the nuance and richness of the Black community to counter media depictions of Chicago's violence. In 2017, she was recognized by Chicago Magazine as a Chicagoan of the Year for her photography of Englewood's everyday beauty. Her Englewood-based photography projects "From the INside," and "Everyday Rituals," were exhibited at Rootwork Gallery in Pilsen, the Chicago Cultural Center, the Harold Washington Library Center and at Loyola University's Museum of Art (LUMA). LUMA also exhibited her Folded Map project in 2018, which visually investigates disparities among “map twins”—Chicago residents who live on opposite ends of the same streets across the city's racial and economic divides—and brings them together to have a conversation. An excerpt of the project was also displayed at the Museum of Contemporary Art within The Long Dream exhibition.  In 2019, she was named one of Field Foundation's Leaders for a New Chicago. Most recently, Tonika was selected as the National Public Housing Museum's 2021 Artist as Instigator. Her newest project, Inequity for Sale,  highlights the living history of Greater Englewood homes sold on Land Sale Contracts in the 50s and 60s. Tiff Beatty is a cultural organizer, arts administrator, performance poet, and host. She is the current program director of arts, culture, and public policy at National Public Housing Museum in Chicago.

In this episode of The Bill Cartwright Show, Bill sits down with executive director at the Chicago National Public Housing Museum Lisa Lee. She details her journey growing up with immigrant parents who did not speak English, and how she developed a passion for the arts and politics, especially during her time in college. After graduating from Duke University with a PhD in Philosophy, Lisa began her career as a director at the Jane Addams Hull-House Museum. In 2017 she was then named Executive Director of the National Public Housing Museum in Chicago, where she currently works today.

At age 76, Sunny Fischer (Evanston, IL) has advocated for women to be free from violence, exercise reproductive choice, afford their homes and possess financial stability. Sunny’s radicalization for women’s issues began in the 1970s while working directly with victims of rape, “the most dramatic form of sexism.” Over the past 40 years, Sunny has co- founded foundations focused solely on women’s issues, including the Sophia Fund which is now part of the Chicago Foundation for Women. Sunny’s work to promote affordable housing includes her current role as chair of the board of the National Public Housing Museum. Whatever the cause, Sunny’s approach is to listen, investigate, understand, strategize, and organize. There is a lot more work to do, and I still have the dreams to try. - Sunny Fischer Contact Information: Sunnyfischer10@gmail.com More about Sunny: https://www.thechicagonetwork.org/members/sunny-fischer/ https://www.futureswithoutviolence.org/about-us/board-and-staff- 2/board-directors/sunny-fischer/ Connect with Gail & Catherine: Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/Wo70AgingReimagined Instagram: WomenOver70 Website:https://womenover70.com Email: info@womenover70.com Show: Women Over 70 – Aging Reimagined Listen on: Apple Play, Stitcher, Itunes, Podopolo Please rate our show and subscribe wherever you listen.

Life begins in wonder, and so does art—authentic education, too, begins in curiosity, and proceeds through discovery and surprise. Emily Dickinson wrote that “Art lights the slow fuse of possibility,” reminding us that every human being is endowed with the powerful and unique capacity to imagine, and that the arts can help us unleash our deepest human hopes and aspirations, our wildest dreams. We begin to explore the arts and the serious work of making justice with our friend and comrade Lisa Yun Lee, Director of the National Public Housing Museum, Associate Professor of Art History and Gender and Women's Studies at the University of Illinois at Chicago, and a leading cultural activist who describes herself as “intellectually promiscuous.”

The story of where we live is uniquely personal. Many historic homes have been preserved and opened to the public – places that tell a story about the way we once lived.   However, American public housing – places built and maintained by governments – has been long been overlooked, forgotten, and worse yet, maligned.   Today’s guest, Dr. Lisa Lee, is working to solve that gap in memory and understanding as the Executive Director of the National Public Housing Museum, the only cultural institution devoted to telling the story of public housing in the United States.   Find the best spot to sit and relax in the place you call home as we talk about the history of housing on this week’s PreserveCast.   

Lisa Yun Lee and Sunny Fischer of the National Public Housing Museum join us in studio for a conversation about the history, the present and the future of public housing in Chicago and the nation. We're not just talking affordable housing, but public housing for every person who needs it.

Two experts on the history of public housing discuss the challenges and opportunities involved in telling this long and complex story. Our guests are historian Brad Hunt (who is also the Newberry’s Vice President for Research and Academic Programs) and Lisa Lee, Executive Director of the National Public Housing Museum in Chicago. --- Intro music: "Two Types of Awakenings" by Nheap

It would have been much easier to build the National Public Housing Museum from scratch instead of retrofitting it in the last remaining building of the Jane Addams Homes, the first public housing development in Chicago. But doing so would have undermined one of the core principles of the museum: that place has power. Robert J. Smith III, the associate director of the National Public Housing Museum, describes the mission of the museum as preserving, promoting, and propelling housing as a human right. In this epsiode, he describes the history of the Jane Addams Homes, how national public policy connects to the lives of public housing residents, and some ongoing decisions about what the museum will look like when it opens next year.
