“I didn’t say anything racist,” said Former Councilman Gil Cedillo in an exclusive interview.
Way back in 2021, a few Los Angeles City Council members came under fire for a leaked conversation with racist jokes and schemes to maintain Latino political power in redistricting. One of the callers was former Councilman Gil Cedillo. After over a year, he finally spoke out.
Among the couple dozen protesters who showed up outside Los Angeles City Councilman Kevin de León's El Sereno offices Thursday was Melina Abdullah, his former teacher.
Demands from community members and LA officials continue to grow demanding councilmen Kevin de León and Gil Cedillo resign over racist comments made during a meeting last year.
