Brass - help me to understand - Baltimore is an issue I've been working on in my mind.
Mayor is black, has been for some time. Prosecutor, black. Police commissioner, black. Council President, black. 9 of 13 city council members, black. Fire Chief, black. Housing Authority Executive Director, black.
Are they racist? Where is the racism coming from? Is it left over systemic racism, and they are combating it but very slowly for decades?
I don't ask you for your thoughts because you are black but because you said the above re: racism. There is no gotcha here - I have been thinking about this for a while. I have asked this question before but answers were predictable tropes divided by party lines.
