In Day 3 of the renewed standoff at Whittier Elementary, the Whittier Parents Committee and its supporters, including members of the Chicago Teachers Union, have been marching since 5 a.m.
Chicagoist's Aaron Cynic was at the scene and sent in these photos of police blocking off access to the fieldhouse at 23rd Street and Wolcott Avenue. The Whittier Parents Committee Facebook page are asking for reinforcements for the protest and for supporters to call the local police district to lift the blockade, as this is a peaceful protest.
