Black groups keep Black candidate G. Juan Johnson from speaking. Elitism and racial bias rear their head.

Dear Mr. Raheem Dawson, et al:
I am in receipt of your email of January 23, 2020. I don’t appreciate you sharing your racism, biases, and prejudices on behalf of the city government of Los Angeles and your biases and prejudices regarding the scheduled January 25, 2020 candidates forum.
Your letter reads like what Hitler would have said at the ovens of Auschwitz.
Your email is not acceptable as a resolution of the damages that have occurred. Your email is further violation of the state Unruh Act which provides for “full and equal accommodations, advantages, facilities, privileges, or services in all business establishments of every kind whatsoever—” which includes business establishments and public entities.
“Where is what you say in the election code?”
You are named in a claim for damages with the city clerk filed yesterday and also a complaint filed with the State Department of Fair Employment and Housing. I am not sure what language you are speaking when you say, “since you did not utilize the nominating process to be included on this list, we are unable to accommodate your request to be included as a participant in this Forum.” Where is what you say in the election code? What city, state, or federal law does that refer to? Are you saying that the votes of write-in candidates will not show up in the final tally because of actions of exclusion of your taxpayer funded violators of the law?
Your letter and the actions of those co-conspirators you allege, are not by accident, they are intentional violations of the city Los Angeles Code of Ethics sections II, V, XII, XIII, XIV.
“…elite class and racial bias, and corruption…”
Your email is further evidence of the elite class and racial bias, and corruption, that exists in this city with the use of city tax dollars, under mayor Eric Garcetti and others.
“…I again request that I be allowed equal privileges to speak (re Unruh) on the podium Jan. 25 with the other five candidates…”
Without waiving the damages that have occurred, I again request that I be allowed equal privileges to speak (re Unruh) on the podium Jan. 25 with the other five candidates at your alleged 2020 Candidate Forum at FAME church. Please cease and desist immediately your violation of the state Unruh Act, CC 51 et seq.
Your email is not acceptable as a resolution of the damages that have occurred.

Dear Mr. Johnson:
We are in receipt of your e-mail dated January 19. Thank you for sharing your thoughts regarding the 2020 Los Angeles City Council District 10 Candidates Forum that is scheduled to take place on Saturday, January 25.
This Forum is a non-partisan event that is being held to inform members of the public about the issues and positions of candidates who will appear on the ballot in the March 3, 2020 election. Due to logistical and timing issues, it is not always possible for a candidate forum to accommodate every candidate in a given election. In selecting the participants in this Forum, the sponsors applied objective criteria — specifically, the candidates who appeared on the Los Angeles City Clerk’s December 13, 2019 Certified Official List of Candidates who qualified to appear on the ballot for the March 3, 2020 Primary Election, which was announced in a News Release issued by the Los Angeles City Clerk on December 16, 2019. (See attached.) Since you did not utilize the nominating process to be included on this list, we are unable to accommodate your request to be included as a participant in this Forum. Your allegations suggesting some form of discrimination are not valid and are belied by the diversity of the group of co-sponsors and the objective criteria used for participants.
We hope that this addresses your concerns. Please feel free to bring your campaign flyers to the Forum and place them on one of the tables that will be set up in the lobby.
Sincerely,
Forum Co-Sponsors;Empowerment Congress West NC (ECWA);Mid-City NC (MINC);Olympic Park NC (OPNC);South Robertson NC (SORONC);United Neighborhoods NC (UNNC);West Adams NC (WANC);Wilshire Center-Koreatown NC (WCKNC) ;RAHEEM DAWSON;United Neighborhoods Neighborhood Council;Region 1 Representative & Communications Chair
(Note from Blog Editor: This emails chain has been redacted; however no wording of the UNNC email has been changed. This email exchange is a publicly accessible documents. The neighborhood councils receive $42,000 a year in city tax dollars, presumably to discriminate against qualified and certified Black write-in candidates and to interfere with the election process. The UNNC can be reached at (323) 731-8686 or their officers names and emails are on their website.)
The city funded NC’s do not
want you to hear my message.
That is a great reason to vote for me.
