This Cartoon is reprinted from The Alley, July 2006. It was also a decade ago when Dr. Alan Goldberg, then CEO of Children”'s MN Hospitals and Clinics, addressed a City Council Committee hearing testimony from Phillips residents in support of saving the Trinity Presbyterian Church building (on the south end of “Block 5” down the alley from the Messiah Lutheran Church building), said, “Phillips is an unliveable neighborhood!” He neglected to admit that the threat to livability is untrustworthy institutions like Children”'s MN that continue to put Phillips Community under siege and a challenge to maintain constant vigilance and defend.
