Fw: Judge Mikva talks to Media today

[Eric Ferkenhoff]

Very last minute, but this is an amazing man who does much for Chicago youth, including the Mikva Challenge and so on. If anyone - anyone - doesn’t have class during this hole, I strongly suggest getting down there to meet him and get us a story on his speech. Should be simple. Thanks so much.
