FROM THE DESK OF KOFI: ADDRESSING THE HOUSTON FIRE DEPARTMENT!

IT'S TIME FOR THE PEOPLE TO FORCE A CHANGE!

"Mayor Bill White has shown a severe lack of leadership in his timid response to the multiple white supremacist/racist and sexist incidents publicly exposed at the Houston Fire Department. The noose hagging and racist/sexist death threats come as no surprise to those who understand the structural nature of white supremacy/racism and sexism in city government. After months of urging from community members, fire fighters and police officers to address these issues finally the Mayor has been forced to provide a response which is less than adequate. It is crystal clear that the people of this city are the only force that can bring forth the necessary changes. Given these facts we ask is Houston really a world class city that should host national and international events?"


Forward,
Kofi Taharka
Chairman National Black United Front - Houston Chapter (NBUF)

Deal with the idiots that committed the crime and quit using it as an opportunity to race-bait. How are your racist remarks any different from the original racism???
