San Francisco Mayor London Breed recently spoke with Vogue about certain white progressives involved in the recent demonstrations following the death of George Floyd, and did not have very nice things to say. Breed stated that while she's happy more white Americans are now supportive of the Black Lives Matter movement recent polling shows upwards of 60% of white Americans support the protests and calls for police reform she has "a real problem with the takeover of the movement by white people."

So rioters came to the mayors house, tried to light it on fire and the police didnt intervene?
Where was the mayors personal security detail?
Blacks themselves are becoming a big component of the backlash. It is their neighborhoods, property values and people that are most hurt by the marxist lunacy and “defunding” of police. Black support of Trump is growing daily as people begin to reject the marxist Democrat nihilism.
BLM was never a grassroots movement started in the Black community. It is a well financed professional group of communist leaning agitators funded most likely with Soros money. Wealthy White liberals are bankrolling this fake group!
She should meet the McCloskeys but they had both black and white people and they had guns too and they tore their gate down..
most of the black residents have left San Fransicko anyway.
New Program Helps People Of Color Adopt A White Liberal To Speak On Their Behalf
So true. London Breed graduated from my high school in the outer Mission District. She was born long after I graduated. When I attended, it was about a third black. Not fun being there during the race riots of the mid-1960s, especially when I got beat up by roving bands of blacks. Where I grew up, about a third of the residents on my block were black. Now replaced by white rich yuppies on the entire block. We sold my wife's mom's house in SF a few years ago for $1.5M, now worth over $2M. The next-door neighbor is a black friend, one of the few blacks remaining, the rest of the area is now dominated by white yuppies who sip wine in their back yards. She's in her mid-70s and planning on leaving. White progressives have flooded in.
Man, screw our media.
yup, black people have left much of the Bay Area (some black communities remain mostly in the East Bay).
interestingly, many of them said they were moving “back South where people are most honest in their relationships with you”
I guess the strong “secret, hidden” racism among many of San Fransicko’s commie-leftist rich white yuppies and so forth, is not appreciated?
she has “a real problem with the takeover of the movement by white people.”
Ungrateful...
White thugs in masks. KLANTIFA
She definitely has the coolest name of any mayor in the country.
#8. Like Barbara Billingsey in “Airplane”, this woman probably said, in order to get the job, “I speak people of color language”.
(Just commenting on their names not their politics) Her other black female peers also come to mind:
Lori Lighfoot (Chicago)
Keisha Lance Bottoms (Atlanta)
He's not convinced.
Call the UN for a “translator”.
While not a mayor, I'd like to give an honorable mention in the "cool name" category to Philly Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw.
‘recent polling shows upwards of 60% of white Americans support the protests and calls for police reform.’
I’ll bet the the number is closer to .005% if it’s even that high!
