Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. I understand supervisor brown is supportive of this license, so i think we can direct our clerk to prepare a resolution determining the license will meet public and necessity and move we forward that to the full board with positive recommendation, and we can take that without objection. Mr. Clerk. Next it item. Number two, condemning the increase of racial profiling and discrimination harassment for people of color for suspicion of or denial of services bade on the individuals race, age, ethnicity, language, gender, Sexual Orientation or immigration status, national origin. This resolution is being submitted due to the increase of people of color being targeted and profiled. We want to bring racial profiling and discrimination, harassment to an end so that no individual will be targeted for suspicion of crime or denial of Services Based on the individuals faith, age, ethnicity, language, gender, Sexual Orientation, immigration status and natural origin. It is our commitment on the board of supervisors to take responsibility and work towards the prevention of discrimination in all of its form and treat all of our residents with dignity and respect. We urge companies to commit to provide bias training, training employees to provide customers with information on how to file a discrimination complaint, and companies committing to investigate any allegations of discrimination. Should our Business Partners have profile without correction, the city will call for a boycott of that business, or lean towards other measures to ensure that all people are treated fairly. And i dont have, there is supposed to be a representative here that i dont see in the audience. Could we go to Public Comment . Certainly. We have Public Comment on this item. We have angela j. , and any other members of the public who would like to speak on this item, line up on the right of the room. Your right, our left. Thank you. Thank you very much. And good morning, chairman, and speaking in favor of the resolution for racial profiling and the discrimination, and thank you for bringing this to the board of supervisors. I represent sf interrupting racial profiling. A group of volunteers to prevent discrimination to people of color in the city. Much like the resolution we seek to address discrimination against people of color. Through our own resolution in our resolution we were looking to see if there could be more bite sanctioning. Our resolution we asked for a little more intrusiveness is not to the way, to the way that people are tracked, trailed or stalked. On someones radar, none of us need to be on anyones radar. We are going to submit to you today our resolution, which is looking into the state changing its stalking laws, possibly creating a trayvon tracking law. Trayvon martin himself was a victim what we call bias by proxy. Our individual obsessed with this young mans past. Some of the Violent Crimes are death by violence by proxy, Racial Discrimination can be prevented if we have strong or state laws, so when we submit our resolution to you today we are hoping that youll look into our trayvon tracking law. It will be very important that we make sure everyone is allowed to walk on the streets unobserved, unescorted and under their own recognizance. Thank you. Thank you. I believe i neglected to note folks have, thank you for sticking to two minutes. I did not let folks know we have two minutes for Public Comment, first and last name clearly and speak directly into the microphone. If you have a written statement, leave it for the clerk for inclusion in the file. No applause or booing. Good morning. John goldsmith, 146 noi street and i support this item. I would humbly suggest an amendment or addendum to include religion or perceived religion because that is also a part of racial profiling and discrimination and harassment. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. Hello, my name is dr. Aryan aroy, a Community MentalHealth Psychologist for 25 years. And my Academic Research was focussed on the criminalization of men of color, nonnegotiated timeout. Return and release of prisoners to american society. It has been sensored on google since 2009, so my research, a decade of local investigation has been buried. What i do want to say is i really am glad to hear about this resolution. I think that there needs to be Public Education about how we treat each other as a society, that we are one human family and its not enough to assume that people have good will. They have been conditioned by the media where aggressive images have been paired with people of color and people have been conditioned to fear people of different ethnicity and races and nationalities. So, this is a very, very deep rooted problem. We need also focus on solutions, with the schools and funding education generously in all neighborhoods and diverse education, Vocational Education that we have largely abandoned. Abandoned the youth of all color, millennials are jobless or go and work for uber or lyft because they cant get a job or they live at home and uber and lyft are spearing exhaust 24 7. The second recommendation is to open up recreation and Community Centers in every neighborhood where people can come for support, including prenatal support and Family Support with individuals who are experts and people who have lived experience. We need to come together as a more informed community to turn this around. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. Hi, my name is josh clip, i was just wondering in terms of condemning of increasing and profiling and harassment if it could also include gender identity, the reason i raise this, trans women of color are perhaps one of the most discriminated against and most subject to violence, most vulnerable communities we have in this city. Thank you. Thank you. Are there any other members of the public who would like to speak on this item before i close Public Comment . Seeing none, Public Comment is now closed. Thank you, chair, and one of our major partners is the Human Rights Commission, i wanted to bring up brittany from the Human Rights Commission to speak on this issue and address why it is so important. Thank you, brittany. Thank you, supervisor walton. Good morning, supervisors. Im the acting chief of staff at the Human Rights Commission which is the Civil Rights Enforcement Agency for the city and county. And im here on behalf of our executive director cheryl davis and want to thank you, supervisor walton for hosting this conversation and the invitation to join it today and discuss the volumes in particular, the volume of complaints they have investigated regarding racial profiling in the context of 911 calls. Our agency does not have enforcement jurisdiction to mediate complaints of racial profiling in 911 calls or bias police encounter. When we do receive those, we forward such complaints to accountability or provide reference to legal aid attorneys to the complainant. This past february we had a Commission Meeting on the same topic and we invited a number of community members, including Angela Jenkins from interrupting racial justice, had the police department, d. E. M. And other Community Organizations come and speak out, and essentially our commissioners and the public recommended some consequences for bias 911 calls and bias, or excuse me, racial profiling for folks making 911 calls. So, the conclusion was, when people use the police as their personal security because they feel uncomfortable or inconvenienced to be around a person who is different from them, the consequences can be fatal. And so racial profiling, when making a 911 call, is really exploitation of the Public Safety system. And the reality not to diminish the reason why people call 911 or theory that all responders to 911 are entering a scenario of carrying bias. We really need to think more upstream about what initiated the call and what prejudice that person making a frivolous 911 call is bringing to the table when they mischaracterize what they are experiencing. And so i know throughout the resolution, referenced 911 equals people are using it as an inherent threat, and to demonstrate an inherent power dynamic with a person not conforming to what one is asking them to do, so saying i will call 911 unless you do x, y and z. So we want our city to continue to be diverse, vibrant, beautiful, socially and culturally diverse, and not be driven by fear. That drives us apart and not unlike the consequences that are associated with our sanctuary city policy or our profiling policy around national origin. We are asking for a similar consequence for bias 911 calls and so what that would look like is a couple asks, one would be increased d. E. M. Training, so that our police are not enforcing the bias that drove the 911 call in the first place. Because even sfpd rep, the lieutenant who spoke at the hearing, every officer cannot control what Services People call for, and so some additional training for the d. E. M. Responders who are meeting with the complainant. And also recommended we have some campaigns encouraging better engagement, both with our neighbors and police and visibility in that way. And lastly, a penalty for folks who make the 911 calls, and an example out of the state of oregon, Legislature Passed a policy that requires, or excuse me, that fines a person who dials a 911 call, its proven the 911 call was made on the basis of bias or racism by includes national origin, gender identity and race. So we, from the Human Rights Commission would ask the supervisors consider some simulation legislation and happy to work in partnership with you to exact that legislation. Thank you, brittany. I think so a couple of things. Just a quick statement. Supervisor mandelman. Issues of bias and lack of cultural understanding can ruin someones life. Unnecessary Law Enforcement action can lead to so many opportunities for a negative experience. Just this past weekend i was bowling with some friends and families and daily city, and someone with us decide to bowl after their time was up, which is wrong, we know it was wrong, and the employee at the Bowling Alley immediately came over and said for that person to stop. We have a cop in the building. That was the statement from the employee after someone who was with us decided to bowl after time was expired. To stop bowling. We have a cop in the building. Went straight to the Law Enforcement response, straight to that type of a statement. So, these are the things that we deal with when it comes to cultural biasses, and also when it comes to the very real experience of when and why would you involve Law Enforcement. And the necessity. There was no aggression, there was no hostility from anyone who was with us in the group, definitely wrong to bowl after the expired time, but threatening a cop after an action like that, that does not correlate to the kind of response you deserve to have when Something Like that happens. Which could really lead to a dire consequence, so we really have to work hard to make sure that our businesses, our residents, folks in community really understand when and why you bring in Law Enforcement, but also do not use this as a tool to try and enforce your own beliefs, your own will, etc. And so i want to be clear, the intent of this resolution and why its important because we see so many instances like that now that exist. Also after, i dont know if my colleagues have statements, but i will continue this item because i do want to look at other resolutions and see what additions can go in here to make the resolution stronger, and of course make sure that our intended concerns are addressed within the resolution and work with h. R. C. On some attached legislation to put more teeth into what we want to accomplish here because we really need to Work Together to get more cultural understanding so we dont cause harm to individuals and communities and do things and get excessive with bringing in Law Enforcement or doing anything that would bring harm to anyone in community, and so i will ask to continue this to the call of chair for the future. Supervisor stefani. Thank you for bringing this legislation forward, happy to support it today and follow up on some of the comments from Public Comment, whether or not gender and Sexual Orientation properly covers gender identity, i think thats an important point and the religion aspect of it. Religion aspect, page two, lines 79 and 1719, a lot of people also act when they see people of different religions in a way similar to the way you are speaking of today, and also on the Trayvon Martin case with that in florida, the stand your ground law that made that deadly when you have people like the n. R. A. Pushing forward stand your ground, we are lucky we dont have it in california, but these laws that allow people to shoot first and ask questions later have to be erased, too, so, thank you supervisor walton for bringing this forward. Im happy to support it. Great, and i would also thank you, supervisor walton, and ask that you work to try to include gender identity and religion. And i believe you made a motion to continue this to the call of the chair, and we will take that without objection. Mr. Clerk. The next item. Resolution establishing the creation of a vision 0 on homicides and Violent Crimes plan [emergency evacuation alarm is ringing] everyone please exit in a safe and orderly manner. If you need assistance, identify yourself to me and i will help you to the evacuate area. We will recess the meeting to the possible moment that we will be coming back in. Cler
