North Lawndale residents and activists gathered Monday morning to raise awareness about the death of a 1-year-old boy found dead Thursday.
Violence Interrupters founder Tio Hardiman speaks on April 24, 2023, near where a 1-year-old Berwyn boy was found slain in Chicago's North Lawndale neighborhood.
“Where’s the outrage? Why is nobody making any noise about what happened to this little baby?” Hardiman asked.He said he heard about Zaiden’s death through word-of-mouth within the Lawndale community. When the incident received little to no media attention in the days following, he said he knew he needed to do something.Shawn Childs, a mentor at House of Hope and leader of No Kids Die in the Chi has been shot three times and in and out of prison.
Mother and longtime South Austin resident Zerlina Smith-Members said the community hasn’t been able to get in touch with Zaiden’s mother. Smith-Members runs a nonprofit called Mothers Who Care. She is a mother herself, but said she takes care of hundreds of other children, fighting to provide them with mental health services, school supplies and other resources.
