Research Notes:
It appears that this event was "off the cuff" in the sense that it conveniently does not appear on the City of Chicago's Mayors Office August 2003 press release section. Daley's presence at the event is suggested otherwise by the photo posted by the traditional Palestinian dance group. The event also does not appear on Barack Obama's old State Senate website calendar:
