"I was recently notified by the mayor’s office that the old South Shore High School building will house migrant families. Housing sites are operating in every part of the city, and this site is one of the last facilities available to house migrant families," Harris said in the statement.Karina Ayala Bermejo from Instituto Del Progreso Latino talks about the clash between Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and Mayor Lori Lightfoot and the toll it is taking on human lives in Chicago.
"I’m disturbed with the fact that so many deals are made under the table and behind the door," Hodges said. "And they feel like they can give us a meeting, and we’ll go away, and they’ll be able to do what they want to do. That has to stop."

At one point, residents thought an agreement had been reached for the space to eventually be used for education, cultural and community purposes, said LaShawn Brown, of South Shore Works.
