Mayoral challengers Brandon Johnson and Paul Vallas offered differing visions on education, public safety and community investment at an event Monday focusing on issues affecting Black and Latino communities. 

Billed as a “discussion” with the community, the candidates did not appear on stage together at the Chicago History Museum. Instead, they had 30 minutes each to answer the same set of questions from moderators Dorothy Tucker, president of the National Association of Black Journalists, and Hugo Balta, executive editor of the Chicago Reporter.
