A Conversation with Iris Martinez
With over 70% of the vote, State Sen. Iris Martinez won the Cook County Circuit Court clerk race, making her the first Latina to lead the office. Martinez was also the first Latina elected to the Illinois Senate in 2002.
The court clerk’s office keeps records of one of the largest court systems in the nation. Martinez ran on a promise of reform to an office plagued by a reputation of inefficiency and corruption. She plans to modernize the office, making sure its system is user friendly, and that everyone who needs to use it, knows how to use it. Martinez is also chair of the Democratic National Committee’s Hispanic Caucus.
Join us for a casual conversation with Clerk Iris Martinez. Registrants may submit questions for consideration. prior to the event. Feb 10, 2021 12:00 PM in Central Time (US and Canada)

TRHT Virtual Racial Healing Circles Series (February 23-March 20, 2021)
Truth, Racial Healing and Transformation (TRHT) is providing opportunities for the greater Chicago community to confront and heal from the traumas of racism by participating in racial healing circles.
Personal transformation and a commitment to change does not happen in a two-hour circle. Therefore, TRHT is hosting a four-week recurring circle series. Recurring racial healing circles are an opportunity to create and build trust between participants and communities that will often serve as the foundation for other work related to racial equity and healing – e.g., changing inequitable and systemic laws and policies. Registrants must commit to attend each week to honor the process and respect those who have committed to change with you.
