It was a pleasure to show @ChicagosMayor the work the @ObamaFoundation is doing inside Jackson Park as we build the Obama Presidential Center!
I can't tell you how proud I am of our Foundation team, Lakeside Alliance, and our local partners bringing the Center to life.
Stay cool and safe out there, Chicago!
The city has cooling centers available in select neighborhoods, as well as public libraries. Find more information on how to beat the heat: https://t.co/0Xd4EMlw8s
We are so grateful for the community members that joined us for our second Obama Presidential Center Roadshow today in Chicago! The power of sports, wellness, and community were on full display.
Great conversation with @ChicagosMayor today about investments and economic opportunity that the Obama Presidential Center will bring to our city. Looking forward to working together with the Mayor as we bring change home!

Just heard Minnie’s cut by accident a few years ago and was like…wait a minute…!
@naima Every time this comes on, I tell my kids - now this is a love song! Listen to the lyrics. And then it comes out, with disgust & resignation, y’all don’t know nothin’ about this…”

What a week in Chicago! From a surprise recording studio drop by at @GuitarsOverGuns to a panel discussion with @MBK_Alliance model communities, @BarackObama returned to the South Side to spend time in community with young people & community leaders. Get a glimpse at his visit:
We believe in the power of community to create a positive impact in the lives of boys and young men of color. At today's @MBK_Alliance Impact in Action event, attendees spent the day learning from #MBKModelCommunities including MBK Omaha, MBK Newark, MBK Tulsa, and MBK Yonkers.
Today I got to hear from @GuitarsOverGuns—one of @MBK_Alliance’s Freedom Summer ‘22 recipients—about how they’re working to support young people on the South Side of Chicago.
When the Obama Presidential Center opens, it will offer spaces and programming just like this.
Thanks for letting me join!
It was a great start to the week hearing from my friend @EbooPatel and Suzanne Yoon at @EconClubChi's latest Global Thought Leaders chat. Eboo was an inaugural member of @BarackObama's Advisory Council on Faith-Based Neighborhood Partnerships. So you could say we go way back!
Chicago: I wanted to personally invite you to our @ObamaFoundation#EarthDay event! We're partnering with Emerald South to host 3 park clean-ups on the South Side. We'll also celebrate with food, music, and giveaways!

This right here! This is where my pride in my Obama journey comes to life: Through the incredible alumni I had the opportunity to work with at the Obama White House.
Great to be with so many @BarackObama alumni in DC tonight. You keep inspiring me each and every day!!
Had an incredible conversation last night with @SocEntChi1 on the importance of creating change with communities and supporting the next generation of leaders.
My pride in the Obama journey comes to life through the @ObamaFoundation and the lives we’ve touched along the way.
