I know what you’re thinking. The new Obama Presidential Center is going to be a hub for rock climbers. Just look at the facade of the building… a rock climbers dream! But black people don’t rock climb soooooo… sorry white climbers. No hand-holds on this mountain. The Presidential Center is designed with a museum devoted to Obama’s presidency, a basketball court, a community garden, and a branch of the Chicago Public Library (more here). It will also have an area for Democrats to pout. Trump, too many people asking if Michelle is a dude, wars, no wars, the Mexico wall, ICE, gender stuff; One side will be soundproof so visitors can yell and scream and blow whistles. The other portion is a quiet space to weep alone.
That was all a joke. If you need to pout, do it in the privacy of your own Twitter account. But for real, it will have areas for young people to learn about careers in things besides sports. In other words, your kid isn’t getting an NIL deal, quit dreaming.
The building looks more like the body of a middle-aged adult, to be honest. So you’d think there would be pickleball courts there, right? Wrong. I don’t see ANY sketches of no pickleball courts at the Obama complex! So basically this is just another place in Chicago you won’t want to visit at night.
