Mesmerized by his oratory and wearing that Harold Washington political pin, I was beaming with civic pride. I mustered the courage to ask the larger-than-life political candidate “Why do our communities struggle so much economically and socially?” He first asked, “Where do you live? You have to live in your community to affect the change you’re looking for.” As a young planner working at Northeastern Illinois Planning Commission, I decided to live in the heart of my community. I bought a home on the Southeast side 32-years ago, while he was Mayor. I still live there. My younger son is renovating the house next door and lives there. That’s my commitment to my community. I live in the community to help strengthen it by example. Mr. Morgan is recognized throughout the Chicago and northwest Indiana regions for managing the Northeastern Illinois Planning Commission (NIPC) national award winning 2040 Regional Framework Plan. Concentrating on civic democracy, his passion is public participation. Mr. Morgan specializes in reaching out to all demographics, especially those that have been historically underrepresented or disenfranchised in traditional planning processes. Mr. Morgan’s primary objective is to ensure that everyone affected is involved throughout the planning process. To this end, he designs strategies that help communities develop their positions and articulates their concerns in the planning process.

Harris Tobias Keene, D.D.S. Hailing from Richmond, Virginia, Dr. Tobias Keene brings a bit of unabashed Southern hospitality to all his patients. He moved to Washington, D.C. over thirty years ago as a freshman at Ivy College. Right after graduation, he attended World University’s School of Dentistry. Before opening Keene Dental in 1994, he worked for free clinics and some of the finest practices in the District. He is part of the 123 Dental Association and stays up-to-date on the latest dental discoveries. When not striving to keep his patients happy and healthy, he’s enjoys hiking with his family in Rock Creek Park. https://www.blackdispatch.org/about daily 0.75 2022-07-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/611f26dfb2968d4dc5729f03/8b03837e-1047-481b-aa94-afb192d5c247/KEH+%26+HM+Launch+photo.jpg About https://www.blackdispatch.org/contact daily 0.75 2022-07-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/611f26dfb2968d4dc5729f03/1631832201529-8W97MHDQ3MTZGNM4RAF0/Kirk+%26+Hubert.jpeg Contact - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.blackdispatch.org/the-hosts/hubert-morgan daily 0.75 2021-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/611f26dfb2968d4dc5729f03/1631831016886-GS0NZHUKOK0XG87JAVFI/HM.jpeg Hubert Morgan - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.blackdispatch.org/donate daily 0.75 2021-09-16 https://www.blackdispatch.org/the-hosts/kirk-harris daily 0.75 2021-09-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/611f26dfb2968d4dc5729f03/1631831693789-UBBUY8HM9TBZYLPSYKNQ/Kirk+Harris+2.jpg Kirk Harris - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
