5 thoughts on “City-County Council seeks to root out inequities in city hall

  1. So basically racial grifting as official city policy in the name of equity.

    By the way disappointing to see the IBJ uncritically parroting the term ‘equity’, as it’s literally Marxism. That worked so well in the past, right comrades?

    1. That’s the thing that bothers me also.
      The IBJ and the Indy Star never question or push back against racial preferences when
      they are announced. They just parrot the advocates as you mentioned.

  2. Couldn’t help but laugh when it said overdue fines are pretty much racist and would be eliminated. How about follow the rules and turn stuff back in.

    1. Following the rules is racist. With that type of thinking, no wonder some
      neighborhoods will never improve.
