...cryptocommie mayor of New York and for some reason a Dem candidate for president in 2020. Corrupt and incompetent, his qualifications for office seem to consist of being married to a black woman, with whom he honeymooned in Cuba. He has a preppy-looking son named Dante, whose Divine Comedy involved getting his back hair up when a police car drove past him slowly. New Yorkers voted for him, so they deserve him...announced Tuesday."It’s time to do something officially representing this city to represent the fundamental power of Black Lives Matter," de Blasio said during his daily City Hall press briefing as he was surrounded by a group of social justice activists.
The mayor said the Big Apple will "name streets in each borough and to paint the words on the streets of this city in each borough at a crucial location — one of which will be here near City Hall — that black lives matter."
The announcement comes after thousands of demonstrators have taken to the streets of the city for more than a week to protest the May 25 killing of George Floyd by a Minneapolis cop, as well as police brutality.
"We don’t want to have to name a street, but I’m glad that we are," Iesha Sekou, the founder and CEO of Street Corner Resources, an anti-violence organization, said during the press briefing.
Sekou added, "We also want to make sure that police are not allowed to act the way we’ve been seeing."
"We’re looking very much forward to holding the police accountable for their behavior," she said.
