I walked
into Room 400 feeling generally optimistic and calm, since all I had to do for
the day was push a button. I was a bit nervous since I didn’t know the guy I
was interviewing, but brushed it off. I sat down and got ready to interview the
guy.
My interviewee, Jerry Garcia, is the
7th District Cook County Commissioner. He seemed nice and outgoing,
yet relaxed at the same time. He introduced himself in a civilized way, and
said he was the 7th District Cook County Commissioner, and he
represents the area of Midway as well as many others on the City Council. He
grew up on the South Side of Chicago, in Little Village. He stated his views on immigration and the
lower class, and how they should have a say on things. He wants everything to
be fair, as well as have poverty and discrimination diminished. He wants all
work classes to have an equal voice, Overall, Mr. Garcia was an interesting and
fair guy with good morals,
He
is trying to give immigrants and all work classes alike to be represented
equally, and have a say in choices. He didn’t think of himself as a hero, but
rather a guy trying to help the unfortunate. In a way, he is a hero, since he
is trying to do the right thing by letting everyone have opportunities. In
general, he was a great guy, with good intentions and a goal that will help
others. This makes him a unique community hero.
