The racist comments were broadcast into the San Bernardino City Council chambers during a public meeting.
San Bernardino officials apologized to the community this week after two men called into a City Council meeting last week via a videoconferencing platform and hurled racist comments at a Black woman. The incident took place Wednesday, when the City Council was taking public comment about whether to hire Charles Montoya as city manager. Some residents were giving public testimony in person at the council chambers and others spoke from remote locations through the city's Zoom platform.
When the racist comments were made at Malone last week, Mayor Pro Tem Fred Shorett put his hand up and asked her to wait while city staff tried to figure out what happened. She felt that the way it was handled was offensive and demanded an apology. 'You should be appalled at what just happened,' Malone told the City Council that night. Shorett stammered, saying 'I'm sorry, yes. I'm sorry. I’m sorry, that should not have happened, and I don’t know how it did.
