Saying democracy is precious and fragile, but emphatically reminding americans and people around the world who were watching that democracy has prevailed. Do you believe that . I believe it survived. Yeah. I got a little echo in my ear. Is it just me . Im very resonant. On these big occasions, my voice is very resonant. It wasnt my voice. Continue. I would say democracy survived. Is the president right to say it prevailed . Absolutely. Why . Because his job is primarily to capture the imagination of the American People. Yeah. To motive the american spirit. But were in a bad way, and i think that today was about relief and was a reminder of us being more than our worst. Ordinarily, you and i have covered a number of these, never in these kinds of situations. But i usually tire at a certain point of the different pomp and circumstance and the fife and drum. At a certain point, i get it. Lets get through some of this. Not today. Today i needed every piece. You did. Every single piece. I w
Maam . Good afternoon, im sorry, im late. I couldnt figure out where to go. My name is joan wood. I live in north beach. I support mrs. Brunos appeal but i also wanted to say i object to the whole project for many different reasons. At the last there were no Public Meetings about close the park, built irrigation system and about adding a seemingly at the last minute that this cement sidewalks around the park were just thrown in on top of it. This is the a whole separate project of the there was no public hearing about it. At first, it was said it would be completed in six months by mr. Conner and then it was a year or less and now the history of the m. T. A.

Also, it seems that an easterly year evaluation of what needed to be done about the irrigation system was commissioned by the Public Utilities commission back in 2016. We havent heard a word a

They are 26 employees who say they were not hired blacks. And i hope that most of yall on this board is white and i have been before you ones before. One of the problems i keep finding that white people are not sensitive to what is truly happening to black people in particularly in San Francisco. In San Francisco, theres a 35 of black, young men unemployed. But nothing is done about it unless they are sleeping under the freeway. Something needs to be happening in bay viewhunters point. It wasnt nobody that said anything about what the White Companies were doing until ray white man went on nbc and said he had the toxic waste spreading in the middle of water black children live. Now they stopped the construction but we had been complaining about that three years before and before.
