    We are all human and make mistakes. Certainly, someone this evening will use a "wrong" word or imply something they don't intend. PLEASE, I beg for calm, thoughtful discussion that helps this community grow. If there is conflict, it can be addressed directly and with the purpose of instructing/advising vs attacking. Thank you

    I am concerned that this meeting may do more harm than good. None of us are perfect, and we can always take steps to improve ourselves and our community. If we forget that, this forum will just shine another bright public light on how insular Manhattan Beach is.
    And how we, like towns across the U.S., think we are so special that we don't have any issues that need to be addressed. I hope we can set aside our preconceived notions. And listen, and learn, and then act.

    Please show this slide at the forum and ask what the BLM members are protesting? why are they not protesting black on black crime and murder

    I am requesting that this forum be neutral, this means you should set the tone and agenda items clearing from the beginning and keep everyone on tract. How was the e-mail from Mayor leaked to the press?
    Per the article Dalia plans to speak abut racism but the agenda is implicit bias, so already there is a plan to shape the meeting. www.dailybreeze.com/2020/07/08/manhattan-beach-to-hold-virtual-forum-on-policing-implicit-bias/?fbclid=IwAR21UzYSTCj0CISdgca_U8F1nFYGC-rcIgZr5h-awE3zaE-ZiMATGnI3Iaw
