Cant make it in San Francisco and its not enough help getting a job. I want to raise your awareness about how difficult it is and what a competitive job market is, more competitive in manhattan. You are competing with everybody here, the tech people and im talking about twitter and all of these tech companies, the last people that they are looking at is people like me. When you are driving into the city on the 101 or over the bay bridge, the first thing you see are billboards of men crawling around in their boxer shorts. The hardware programmer and ruby on rails programmer. The last people they are looking at is people like me who are older women in tech. I wanted to thank you all and congratulate all of you for your success and everything you try doing; youve tried to accomplish. We are also in the middle of a depression. Even though we have these tech companies, its brutal. I want to thank you all for everyone you have done and raise your awareness that this is not enough. I needed m
Thank you. Public speaker hello, my name is nancy hernandez. I work as a teacher in the San Francisco unified school district. The reason why im here is i here in support of the previous version about Police Violence and racism within the Police System and the right to protest. In the current evolution of the proposal i feel like a lot has been taken out. I think its commendable that the board of supervisors in San Francisco wants to take initiative and address the uprising happening in our city.

The previous version of it talked about the racism, talked about thi
American with Civil Liberties union and those incorporated into this resolution. An independent investigation into the nieto killing would be a concrete action of San Francisco to take to implement the spirit of this resolution. Public speaker i wanted to speak actually in support of two items, item 52 and 53 and they are related. As far as item 52, im sure all the people behind me will have the things to say maybe better than i. I believe we need to stand with our youth today. If we pass this resolution, we will pass this resolution we will become part of a historical time because at this time there is going to be no turning back and we into need to join with the people standing up for these rights and standing up against Police Brutality and yes ferguson was the spark but we have had too many deaths here in San Francisco, alex nieto and so when the Police Officers Association Takes offense with this resolution, i find that offensive myself. So please pass this and i work with a lot o

You cannot forget your area growing up in a black community ingleside i have witnessed sfpd abuse their power i watched the police slam my mother on the floor as the officers digged his knee in her back and i have watched them harass my sister. The sfpd and Police Across the nation must be held accountable for their action. Every minute a child is murdered boo i the police. For the last few months i have been actively protesting. I have been to ferguson and felt and saw the grief of this community. It is the same pain we feel here. You know this is wrong. How many of you have children. How would you feel if your child
