    Legendary Chicago organizer, Wallace “Gator” Bradley “The Urban Translator,” is calling on McDonald’s to use DON’T BE MCFOOLED “90-DAY PROTEST” as a tool to make things right, end the systematic racism that has denied Black franchisees equal opportunities and change the way it treats its Black employees
