Contextually, this was his 1st year as mayor (the tapes were recorded before he took office), it was an FBI investigation, and he had to make a hard, no-win choice. If you want to hear an actual black constituent of South Bend talk about it, here you go:https://twitter.com/AnnaknikkiMicou/status/1119312487424434176 …

Isn’t there a black woman running for mayor with a platform that is based around Pete Buttigieg being horrible for people of color in South Bend? Not sure how that woman can say “we’re ok” with black people having 2x the poverty rate in South Bend...

1) 2x poverty rate for the black community is the American average. 2) Williams-Preston, the black woman running for mayor in South Bend, has supported Mayor Pete in his presidential bid, saying that, though he made mistakes early on, he has listened to the community an improved.

Sure. The story of Mayor Pete's mayorship is a white guy who comes in thinking he has all the answers, and learns to listen to his community, especially those most vulnerable among his constituents.pic.twitter.com/5KAFC4eHW4

Oh, I wanted to see where she said she would support his presidential run.

I feel there is a difference in congratulating Pete on his decision to run and saying I will vote for him. The jury is still out for me on that one. I can appreciate the change he made on housing initiatives in SB and it says a lot when a leader can admit mistakes. 1/2

That’s just one piece of a larger puzzle. I’m a Berniecrat so I won't be easily swayed. But I’m always willing to listen & there's a large field of candidates. People are asking my opinion & my advice is to look beyond polish & focus on policy. That's true for all candidates

Thanks for chiming in, Regina. It’s good to actually have a legitimate SB voice during these discussions.

Thanks for the insight, Regina. We've heard a lot of great insight from you on 1000/1000, do you have any thoughts to share on the Darryl Boykins firing? Seems like a pretty gnarly situation.
