We are in the midst of a four alarm fire, and our media figures, on television and in print, refuse to call out the arsonists and focus on criticizing the firefighters for putting their suspenders on the wrong way.

One thing screaming at me was the fact that while 40,000 people were on affordable housing waitlists, the entire Seaport was built with $18B in public investment, and of the thousands(?) of mortgages awarded there, just three were approved for Black folks. Must watch. #bospoli
