(Chicago Tribune) — Donna Rogers spent Saturday afternoon marching through a portion of the Englewood community denouncing the area’s violence. This was her first time marching. She has spent recent evenings going door to door there, passing out fliers about a $1,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of anyone involved in the July 9 shooting deaths of her nephew and his friend. Before July 9, Rogers hadn’t passed out fliers before. So, this makes her story both a wake-up call and a call to action. ”I have felt for the last month what it feels like to get involved and I want to say to people: ‘Get involved before it happens to you,’” said Rogers.
