Blakely opened Cook It Mama Café last September and serves a wide variety of lunch menu items including her popular jerk chicken salad. She launched her small business after quitting her job with the Secretary of State's Office, and used her life savings to pursue her true passion.
Ald. Nicole Lee represents the 11th ward, and said this behavior will not be tolerated in her community. Lee said the Department of Streets and Sanitation came out Wednesday night to remove all the graffiti except on the murals since Blakely is still waiting to speak with the artist to see what can be restored.
Last year Chicago police investigated 177 hate crime incidents in the city. Blakely is hoping police will bring the person in her case to justice.
