Why Trump's victory was vindication for this pastor from Chicago's South Side
Fox News
Though Trump is now president, our work is far from done. A president is only as good as his people and I promise to carry on with my work on the South Side of Chicago.
Pastor Corey Brooks, known as the "Rooftop Pastor," is the founder and Senior Pastor of New Beginnings Church of Chicago and the CEO of Project H.O.O.D. (Helping Others Obtain Destiny), the church's local mission. He gained national attention for his 94-day and 343-day rooftop vigils to transform the notorious "O-Block," once known as Chicago's most dangerous block, into #OpportunityBlock.
