Harold Washington Inauguration April 29 1983 

Digging through some old footage for a documentary I stumbled on this pool feed recording of the first inauguration of Chicago Mayor Harold Washington April 29, 1983 at Navy Pier.
The video includes the role call of alderman (it was an actual city council meeting) and the last formal action by outgoing Chicago Mayor Jane Byrne. Byrne was Chicago’s first female mayor. Washington was Chicago's first African American mayor. Roman Catholic Cardinal Joseph Bernardin gives the invocation. Ron Magers from WMAQ is the moderator.
Washington’s term in office was marked by conflict with the city council, an episode known as the Council Wars. Washington died in office following re-election on November 25, 1987.
