Chicago pastor declares war on Obama's fledgling $830 million library empire project with his own center for opportunity: 'Not victims'

Less than a mile from the enormous $800million-plus Obama Presidential Center rising up over Jackson Park in Chicago's gritty South Side, one local pastor is developing his own $47million hub for change - without a dime from the city's Democrat machine, BLM, or the Obama Foundation.

Reverend Corey Brooks has been building the Leadership and Economic Opportunity Center through his organization, Project HOOD, on the city's notorious 'O Block', long considered one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in the country.

A conservative Republican in a very blue city, Brooks earned the nickname 'Rooftop Pastor' after spending 94 days in the bitter Chicago winter of 2021-2022 living on the roof of his construction site to raise funds for the new center.

Brooks's mission is to mentor and lift young people out of poverty - but unlike Obama's embattled legacy project - he aims to do so without 'woke' ideology or the belief that success depends on government handouts.

For his latest fundraising effort, the 56-year-old grandfather, who jokes he could lose a few pounds, will set off on a year-long, 3,000 miles 'Walk Across America' starting in New York City's Times Square on September 1, with the hope of raising money and attention for both his project — and his philosophy that people of color do not need to be treated like oppressed victims.
