Milwaukee Black Panthers protest outside mayor's home

 

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- The Milwaukee Black Panthers protested outside Mayor Tom Barrett's home on Saturday. 

They blame Barrett and other elected officials for the city's lead crisis and other problems. 

"You elected officials will be held accountable for the mismanagement of our community, for the disrespect to our community, and for intentionally allowing thousands of our children to be poisoned and not doing anything about it," said King Rick with the Milwaukee Black Panthers. 

The group says they plan to promote and support minority candidates at all levels of city government in the 2020 election.
