In an op-ed for the Chicago Sun-Times, Columnist Mary Mitchell writes that Chicago’s millennial voters are to blame for the low turn out in the municipal elections.

He joined Jill Hopkins on The Morning AMp to defend his fellow millennials and shed some light on the work young people have done to make social justice an issue every candidate must address. Listen to our conversation below:
