In the last question, she quantified the response that a black woman at a local establishment who serves or waits on her is her favorite. Afterward, I asked if she wanted to clarify anything, if the statement that she acknowledged to have shocked the room was what she intended.
Her response to that, as I'm taking notes in front of her, included a sentiment that she didn't think races should mix in marriage. And while she thought it was OK for blacks to live in Marysville, her husband might disagree. It was only a SMALL part of a much LARGER forum.
I'm working on a story that will include information from that much larger forum. But we report information voters need to know. And they need to know this. Hopefully, your takeaway isn't that Marysville is racist. This is one woman.
Although, it's far from the first race-related issue I've heard. For ex., South Park residents in PH, many of whom are African American, have said they won't drive through Marysville to get to I-94 for fear of being pulled over. A worthwhile convo to have. But I wonder:
Am I the right person to tell this story tonight? What can I do to make this story fair to everyone in that room and everyone at home reading? What can we do in the future to start this dialogue? I'm working on the story, but we're going to take our time. Don't wait up.
