As we welcome 2023, we are relieved to have staved off a white-supremacist-patriarchal-predatory-capitalist mayoralty and welcome the kind of substantive change promised by Mayor Bass. Already, she has already changed the language and expectations around housing and support for houseless people. Another critical issue that she must address is public safety and LAPD. And, more specifically, who will be the Chief? We say loudly and resoundingly that it is time for Chief Moore to go.
As we celebrate the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. this week, words like “darkness” and “hate” are thrown around by city leaders as though they are some abstract windmill to be tilted at, not the embodiment of centuries of death and brutality forced on Black people that Dr. King understood it to be. Present at these festivities has been the LAPD, today’s vanguard of this death and brutality, with half of the city’s discretionary budget at their disposal.
