Supervisor @ShamannWalton and I will lead the effort to redirect funding from the @SFPD to support the African-American community in the upcoming budget.
SF has made substantial progress on police reform and use of force in recent years, but we know there are structural inequities in our city that continue to this day.
35% of homeless San Franciscans are black, despite black people making up only 5% of the total population.
But this was also the case before the pandemic.
Those who have been voiceless for too long are going to be at the table making these decisions that will impact their community.
