Obama's new Presidential Center and his tricky relationship with the South Side

After nearly 10 years of planning and construction, the Obama Presidential Center is opening on the South Side of Chicago — right across the street from an under-resourced high school, in a segregated neighborhood where home prices have jumped. Who is the Center for, and what will it mean for the people who live there? We get into it with two South Siders who’ve covered the Center for years — journalist Natalie Moore and the Invisible Institute’s Maira Khwaja — about the Chi’s tricky relationship with the president who claims them.
