    This is actually deeply discouraging. Not surprising, but it confirms exactly what we felt on the ground. Communities of color in Oakland and the surrounding areas voted to reform their justice system while affluent whites and moderate Dems chose to keep it just the way it is.pic.twitter.com/Lt0ETaK6bj

        reasoning is “simple” I think. To the Dem side or affluent side of the Dems it’s simply a news at 6 issue. they know it’s bad but haven’t had it affect them directly. they know change may be needed, they don’t have fear of it impacting them if it doesn’t unlike guns in schools.

        I am committed to participate by voting. But the day after every election day I get SOOO discouraged to see how my neighbors vote, and the outcome of each of election.

        When Democratic establishments commit unconstitutional acts of subjugation leading to displacement, socioeconomic injuries, poverty and added residual mistreatment against a protected class then we must say that... Liberalism is “White Supremacy!” #EndResidualMistreatment

        Follow the March For Our Lives example. Get young people involved and advocating. The next generation is key to turning this around. Also your highlighting of the violence continues to get the message front and center.

        Don't be discouraged, Shaun. Insurgencies rarely win the war in the first battles. Just having fought for decent candidates prepares us for the next battles that will make inroads on the people who voted for the system this time.

        It’s discouraging, but at least now you have intel that a big problem is indifference amongst affluent and white “progressives,” “resistance” types, etc. We sink or swim as one, and people connected to those communities now need to do a better job of building solidarity.

        so disappointed in my liberal white folks. Talk a good game but won't back it up with real action. They don't really really want actual equality. Only want my perception of it.

        The incumbent and the police unions also peppered the area with "Willie Horton" mailers in the days right before the election.

        Look at the turn out. That’s a big problem. You’d have had your “horses” win had you gotten good turnout. 20% turnout the norm and most of those who do come out and vote, want heavy law enforcement

        Shaun, the Republicrat party is one. Please start pushing for independents and third parties rather than the party with a 120 year old record of preserving the status quo.
