this is the guy a dude on twitter called "the white obama". no thx.. .... [ Kaitlin Byrd @GothamGirlBlue :: Pete Buttigieg can speak 8 languages but hasn’t read enough black writers to understand why his firing of the first black police chief over documenting racism among senior officers while doing nothing to the white officers was a problem. #CNNTownHall ] ..... [ https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/19/us/politics/buttigieg-black-police-chief-fired.html ] .... [ "As Mr. Buttigieg seeks the Democratic nomination in a party whose base is anchored by minority voters, his handling of Mr. Boykins’ dismissal and its messy aftermath raise questions whether the mayor either misunderstood or mishandled sensitivities surrounding race and policing in the place he knew best, a city which is 37 percent black and Latino. .... “It felt stomach-churning,” Mr. Buttigieg recalled of the night of the 2012 protest, speaking in an interview. “To know that that same day, we were at what even then I understood was going to be the beginning of an incredibly painful and divisive moment of race relations in my city.” .... At that time, Mr. Buttigieg said he removed his police chief because he had lost faith in him after discovering the F.B.I. was investigating him for secretly taping officers’ phone calls. The chief sued the city for racial discrimination over his firing and won $50,000 in 2013. Four white officers sued the city for invasion of privacy and defamation and won a $500,000 payout the same year." ] #petebuttigieg #burnnotice #whitemoderates https://www.instagram.com/p/BwliV2LAxNl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12r1sdii8yxiu
