Where to put the Obama Presidential Library?
November 27, 2008
Lee Bey suggests putting the Obama Library in Pullman:
I’m sure the lobbying machine is already being built in Hyde Park and the University of Chicago. But Obama’s early days as a little-known community organizer were spent on the far South Side. Back then, his strategy meetings took place at a McDonald’s just three blocks due south of the Pullman factory. The presidential library would bring the kind of investment, equity, attention–and yes, change–that the Far South Side, and Chicago, sorely needs.

I believe putting a library in Obama’s neighborhood in his honor, is a good ideal ; I believe there should be a library in Obama’s honor in every city across America and Abroad.
