Statement of Cardinal Blase J. Cupich, Archbishop of Chicago, after the July 7 Dan Ryan Peaceful March

July 7, 2018

Yesterday afternoon I learned that city and state law enforcement officials were cooperating to allow marchers to enter the Dan Ryan in a way that would secure the safety of all. Let us give thanks that all came together to achieve a peaceful march today. Now it is time for all of us, especially our leaders, to take up with vigor the concerns raised by our young people and all those who marched today.
