Do you believe that black residents in Chicago are the only ones upset with the democrats at the moment?

Of course not. I just think that you're overlooking the degree to which progressives are always upset with the Democrats.

They're always mad, they're always disappointed, they're always giving voice to their frustration that the DNC isn't pursuing the policies that the most progressive 5% of the party wants to pursue. And so they protest. They always protest.

But by the time the convention rolls around, Trump will be the presumptive GOP nominee and Biden will be the presumptive Democratic nominee, and that will clarify a lot of people's perspectives about how to actually achieve progressive goals (hint: it's usually not by electing a Republican President). So while there will still be protests, you're not going to have anything close to the chaos of 1968.
