#AyeKeisha what do mayors actually have the power to do.
Because if all we're gonna get is a list of what can't be done, anyone could be in office. Why does it have to be you?

Why can't I live where Great Aunt and Grandma lived and worked?
Why isn't housing in the peremiter affordable?
Especially if there's extra money to spend on the APD budget?

When you were applauding Erika Sheilds as a police chief, was this before or after she sent a email to the cops saying she didn't plan to fire or discipline the officers involved in assaulting those college students?

In your press conference 2 weeks ago, you condemned people "running out with brown liquor in your hands breaking windows in this city".
How can we believe youll fight for #RayshardBrooks if this is the image you have of Black ppl?

Why did you continue your press tour after Messiah Young and Taniyah Pilgrim were attacked by APD?
Why not halt your engagements and refocus on the city immediately?

FINALLY...
#AyeKeisha are you listening?
Because the problem with Black politicians? Y'all are all acting like you'll be okay regardless.
Like you value your positions over Black lives.
Like our pain is just something you have to wait out.
