00:02.560 --> 00:04.930
- How do we tell the story
about what's happening here?

00:04.930 --> 00:08.000
Like what's the story that
Boston is trying to tell.

00:08.000 --> 00:11.300
- We have great prosperity in
the city of Boston right now.

00:11.300 --> 00:13.220
And one out of every six Bostonians

00:13.220 --> 00:14.840
is struggling with food insecurity.

00:14.840 --> 00:17.260
We need to work together
to tackle this issue,

00:17.260 --> 00:18.890
to get that number to zero.

00:18.890 --> 00:21.910
- There is no doubt that there
are disparities that exist.

00:21.910 --> 00:25.130
And there are systemic
barriers and policy barriers.

00:25.130 --> 00:26.460
And we want to address them.

00:26.460 --> 00:28.295
- In my years of being President of NAACP,

00:28.295 --> 00:30.100
there was never this much focus

00:30.100 --> 00:32.313
on being involved in civil rights.

00:39.570 --> 00:42.350
At the intersection of VFW
Parkway and LaGrange street

00:42.350 --> 00:43.750
in West Roxbury,

00:43.750 --> 00:45.329
the traffic signal was out.

00:45.329 --> 00:46.400
- Yeah, I just want to
confirm that you had it.

00:46.400 --> 00:48.740
- I have a constituent that's
asking about road maintenance.

00:48.740 --> 00:50.700
Is it okay if I put them through?

00:50.700 --> 00:52.430
- Is it a stray dog?

00:52.430 --> 00:54.650
- Yeah, she said she
couldn't see a visible cause.

00:54.650 --> 00:57.759
Like there was no downed
wires or anything,

00:57.759 --> 01:00.290
but the whole block appears to be out.

01:00.290 --> 01:02.510
- [Mayor Walsh] If you're
not getting a response,

01:02.510 --> 01:04.620
my advice, two things,

01:04.620 --> 01:07.180
number one is call your
complaint into 3-1-1.

01:07.180 --> 01:08.400
And if you see me on the street,

01:08.400 --> 01:10.903
grab me and tell me what the problem is.

01:10.903 --> 01:11.761
- What do you want?

01:11.761 --> 01:12.952
- Ma'am?

01:12.952 --> 01:17.118
- It's unhealthy, but
you've got to have some too.

01:17.118 --> 01:21.035
(New Orleans style jazz music)

01:23.920 --> 01:26.250
- How do you take your expertise

01:26.250 --> 01:27.400
and take it out to the community

01:27.400 --> 01:28.840
and give people opportunities?

01:28.840 --> 01:33.513
Our job is to represent and
support the people of Boston.

01:34.560 --> 01:36.740
- The impact can be made locally

01:36.740 --> 01:38.017
and all it takes is one city.
