Well look, it's everyone's favorite finger pointer, Chris Tyson. He's so smart and uses such big words.

Almost every "team" advises that Broome create a permanent committee focused on the topic the "team" was responsible for...
Who didn't see that coming?

They threw him a bone in the IT team (the smallest group). They didn't let him in the Economic Development group despite that being his biggest rally cry.

Yeah, Chambers is terrible. Not gonna lose any sleep over him being a member of the "information services/technology" committee of a mayoral transition team.

Guarantee that was Gravy's recommendation. Boy love him a buffet.

When fricking Gravy and MM are each on a committee, you know this town is screwed.

I think SWB is going to be great for Baton Rouge.

The Race Relations Transition Sub-ommittee began its work with three core principles:
1. Race is a social construct.
2. Race is an issue that has meant (and means) different things to different people over time and by geography.
3. Race in America—and therefore in Louisiana and in Baton Rouge—is deeply rooted in institutional slavery.
Knowing this, the Sub-committee approached its work in crafting the recommendations in this report through the following lens: First, what issues are we currently facing in our city that are most tied to race? Second, if we look deeply at the issues through the lens of race relations, what recommendations most align to dismantling the systems of privilege that currently allow race to dictate outcomes?
Put simply, the Sub-committee believes that Baton Rouge is plagued by our racial divide. People with privilege must recognize it, understand it, and act against it in order for our city to move past the divisive lines history has drawn. Baton Rouge must all identify where structural racism and white privilege create a system of preference in economic, political and social systems. We all must actively create offsetting systems that level the playing field for people of color, especially those living in poverty.
