Mike Stephen talks with:

• retired art teacher, union guy, and blogger Fred Klonsky about Governor Rauner and Mayor Emanuel teaming up to bust the Chicago Teachers Union and more;

• journalist Evan F. Moore about his Chicago Reader interview with three African-American cops caught between black and blue; and

• Logan Square Preservation president Andrew Schneider about an ongoing fight to remove eyesore billboards from the neighborhood.

Meanwhile, we pay tribute to Dan Turner, a personal friend and social justice activist; and we wish Mike’s mom a happy birthday!

This week’s local music is provided by Jodee Lewis.
