Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg rebuked a man at an Iowa July Fourth barbecue for suggesting that Buttigieg"just tell the black people of South Bend to stop committing crime and doing drugs."
"Sir, I think that racism is not going to help us get out of this," the South Bend, Indiana, mayor told David Begley, of Omaha, Nebraska."The fact that a black person is four times as likely as a white person to be incarcerated for the exact same crime is evidence there's systemic racism. It is evidence of systemic racism, and with all due respect, sir, racism makes it harder for good police officers to do their job too.
