What are some good Chicago history books? Not looking for any topic in particular, it can relate to any part of Chicago history

She's naked, handcuffed in her own living room, surrounded by 10 male officers (who kicked in the wrong door, raided the wrong home) and a cop says, "Okay. Okay. You don't have to shout." She's sobbing, another cop says, "Ma'am, ma'am, just relax, alright?" Inhumane, infuriating

Wow: Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s law department went to court to try and stop @cbschicago from airing video of Chicago police raiding a social worker’s home. She was changing and naked; police refused to give her the video until a judge ordered them to. chicago.cbslocal.com/2020/12/14/you…

This is where we're at in buying PPE. An Illinois official sped on a highway to get to a meet-up in a McDonald's parking lot, where she handed off a $3.4 MILLION CHECK to buy N95 masks from China with 20 minutes to spare, beating other bidders.

Student journalists at WKCR are having to correct professional media, including CNN, claiming the Columbia protesters aren't students. What a black mark on our industry, forcing student reporters to fact-check our unsubstantiated claims while they watch police raid their campus

A very large crowd is gathering at 71st/Chappel, where Chicago Police say they shot and killed a person this evening. It's hard to put in words how tense the scene is. Witnesses say a female officer shot the man in the back while he was running away. He was a local barber.

Pro-Palestine protesters have disrupted the #DNC24 delegate welcome party at Navy Pier tonight. Video taken by a source there. "You are funding a genocide. And Harris-Biden administration keeps sending money to Israel. Free Palestine."

I wonder if instead of "violent protests over the police shooting of a Black man" we in the news media could start to say "protests over the violent police shooting of a Black man"

The crowd just finished chanting "Who do you serve? Who do you protect?" The crowd formed within two minutes after the shooting, witnesses say.
