there's also generational nuance here, between the period of time she grew up in SF, when violent crime was more prevalent, and subsequent and up-and-coming generations of Black political leadership. I would look at

Yes, that seems like a great thing. The point is - and what Mayor Breed is talking about are the mostly white people protesting outside her house, shooting fireworks at her windows, because they think the defunding doesn't go far enough:pic.twitter.com/XBteheATml

That's SF protest politics. Many layers of "white progressive" here. There's the older pedantic generation that were first-wave gentrifiers in the 1970s and 1980s who she's definitely talking about. There's a younger generation too. Fireworks seem excessive.
