In Pittsburgh there are 10 Black individuals elected to prominent political positions. There are four Blacks elected to the Pittsburgh Public School Board, and their primary responsibility is to help our children grow in the educational system. The remaining six are elected by members of the Democratic Party and overwhelmingly the majority of them serve the Democratic Party, not the people. Out of the remaining six, only two have ever attacked the Democratic bosses for the mistreatment of Blacks and they are Allegheny County Councilman William “Bill” Robinson and Pennsylvania state Rep. Jake Wheatley.
It is insulting when colored elected persons often use the weak excuse that they don’t want to expose elected officials because they will be denied access to them. These politicians are totally misguided, because they fail to understand that those modern day slave masters only understand and fear the power of Black unity.
