I hope a lot of y’all (white progressives) are spending your morning wondering why it was so easy for you to abandon the Black woman who was the loudest voice against white supremacy on the council based off the word (lies) of cops - the people she’s been most critical of
Oh and while I’m at it to the media that simply print police accusations as fact: we could avoid being in this situation again if you just remember one simple thing…. COPS FUCKING LIE ALL THE TIME. So maybe just keep that in mind moving forward.
You won’t, but a guy can dream

love how the racists are using her getting into an accident (which has NOTHING to do with her ability to be a councilor) to hide behind their racism.

It’s tough. Crashing into a house isn’t disqualifying. Driving for 10 YEARS without a license… that’s bad. On the other side, though, you’ve got cops lying and all the worst people in the city rooting against her. I dunno, I think it might be slightly too nuanced for Twitter.

It was easy because "Revoked License Lara" did the following:
1. Drove for 10 years without a license
2. Crashed her car into an elderly woman's home
3. Injured her unrestrained special needs son
That's why Kendra was voted out!

You can’t get through to some folks how far a humble and sincere apology and acknowledgement of a mistake can go.
Arrogantly defending oneself, when one is unequivocally in the wrong, seldom resonates with voters.
