Fearless Leading by the Youth (FLY) “Trauma Center Track” about our campaign to get a level 1 trauma center at the U of C Medical Center because the south side currently has NONE and the U of C receives THE MOST tax breaks of any south side hospital while providing among the lowest rates of charity care.

Track written by FLY members Jasamine “Tweak Harris,” Jamell Rush and Kennard Amarie Johnson and produced by Marshawn Rush.

Thanks to Cryptonite for the beat and ABC7, Chicago Tribune, We the People Media/Mary Johns, Jamell Rush, Brett Jelnek, Sarah Jane Rhee, Darren Leow, Maureen Murphy, April Wilson, Dan Scotti, CBS/WBBM for footage, photos, news clips
