Minister Frankie Davis has resided in the West Humboldt Park/West Garfield area since 1980 and was one of the many residents who gathered at Orr Community Academy High School Friday night on Chicago’s west side as part of the “Summer of Faith and Action,” kick-off movement, a faith-based and community effort to reclaim the city's streets from drugs and gun violence.
