  1. Want to do something really significant Gov? I suggest the state take over IMPD which obviously can’t be effectively run and managed by the City of Indianapolis.

  2. You can hire all the Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity commissars you want, so long as there is a massive cultural behavior gap between black citizens and everyone else, the gaps will persist because we’re ignoring the actual ‘root causes’. The problems in that community are largely only fixable from within and the current mania is a desperate effort to ignore that because it’s too uncomfortable to discuss openly.

    1. Amen.
      Why are we talking about color instead of crime?
      No one gets shot driving to work or church.
      Facts are pesky things.

  3. If the governor really wanted to help the black community, he’d fix the schools, starting with IPS. And by fix, I mean close it down and start over. Education will create opportunity, not appointing a diversity officer. Since when does government create opportunity anyway?

    And we’re gonna look at sentencing reform? Is that what’s plaguing the black community, the criminals are locked up too long? They need more opportunities to prey on innocent victims? Well, I guess that’s one opportunity the government can create.

    This is all just so the the Liberal media like IBJ might find it in their hearts to say something nice about him (sorry Governor, but they won’t).

  4. “Holcomb said he believed the state needed to take action to address racial inequality and injustice.”
    What Governor Holcomb need to do is to layout to the citizen of Indiana the specific racial inequalities and injustices. Problems are impossible to solve when you have not defined specific issues. Government would be wise to embrace industry method for solving problem because the same old tired methods they have used in the past continue to fail. Oh that what this new position is to determine, State of Indian has 30,000 and can’t determine the problem, but one more is the magic number, ump.
    “The new chief equity, inclusion and opportunity officer for the state will be responsible for identifying shortcomings in administration and finding ways to fix those gaps”
    So based on this article racial inequality is Black inequality. So Mr Governor please clarify how Black Inequality and you new cabinet position are going to maintain inclusion. Or this inclusion exclusive to one particular group, hence exclusion.
    The hypocrisy of these action are mind boggling. Also will you candidates for the new position all be Black and if so how is that diverse and inclusive.
    Is anyone asking questions out there and if not, WHY?
