What’s In Mayor’s Latest Exec Order? Plus, Fall Exhibitions and Flavors

Last week, Mayor Brandon Johnson signed an executive order barring companies with a recent history of workplace discrimination from receiving city contracts. It also requires city contractors to disclose past work done for other governments and law enforcement agencies, and creates a new procurement task force. We dive into the details with contributors Leigh Giangreco and Al Scorch. Plus, we’ve got great art exhibitions and fall flavors to check out this September.

Exhibitions: Between Memory and Becoming: Manifestations of Black Motherhood; Artist’s Flower Show: Pigments; If Emmett Till Lived: Freedom on American Ground; Where Memory Lives: 40 Years of Día de Muertos
