Before the next march on City Hall, we need to get one thing straight.
Are we madder at Charleston City Councilman Harry Griffin â the one with the potty mouth and questionable judgment â or Councilmen Robert Mitchell, Keith Waring and William Dudley Gregorie?
Because earlier this week, it was kind of hard to tell.
In news conferences and online petitions and at City Councilâs Zoom meeting Tuesday, folks have repeatedly demanded that Griffin resign from council for palling around with âhate groups.â
But some of those condemning Griffin have been just about as critical of City Councilâs three African American members for ⦠well, thatâs not entirely clear. People who called into the council meeting said they were âhugely disappointedâ in their response to Griffinâs antics, claimed âsilence is complicityâ and threatened to vote them out of office.
