i want to salute julius turman for his tremendous courage. as you look at his life, this is someone that was absolutely fearless. he first came on my radar when he took on the races in the castro, which i still think is a problem. as a community we've been so reluctant to acknowledge, yet he was absolutely fearless in taking on that challenge. and i really am in awe of his work on the police commission. you know, any of us who have had interactions with the police department knows several, very, very fine officers there, but there is institutional structureses that remain challenging to people all across the city. and his unwavering commitment to addressing those issues without fear, with total courage, is an example for all of us who live in the city to never be daunted, never be afraid, and to always be fighting to make a difference. it is a tremendous loss for everyone in the city, certainly for the lgbtq community, but i really want to acknowledge the loss that my colleague supervisor cohen and president breed, but he will be sorely misse

during that time, the exclusion act was in full effect thanks to julius kahn. he actually called the chinese the most debasing people on the face of the earth. my dad's outlet was tai chi, and he would go to local playgrounds to practice it, as a way to feel he belonged in a city, in a country where he was constantly told he didn't belong and was not welcome. and so if it wasn't for the repeal of the act, he wouldn't have become a citizen, and i wouldn't be standing here today. i believe that there's power in history in place and names, and renaming this park is a critical step for our city to work towards one which our public spaces are safe spaces where all feel welcome. so -- so the next time i bring my kids to this park, i sincerely hope that it would be way more than a teachable moment where i have to force them to -- force myself to tell them that this public space was named after a public figure that promoted hate and fear, but rather, it would be a proud moment that our city stood up and renamed this park to something that stands for our values of inclu

so behalf of julius i share that with you tonight. like to thank mayor ferrell, the supervisor stefani and sheey for recognizing and addressing the crisis that we are facing with staffing. i've been on the police commission for a long time as both a state and federal prosecutors here in san francisco so i'm aware of the need for policing. given the current state of our criminal justice and mental health systems, our officers can barely respond to the calls for service. they are busy dealing with repeat offenders and people in mental health crisis. by adding these police officers to our police department it will make the street safer for our citizens and those who visit our city. there's days when i walk from the parking garage to my office and i see the things that we all see, unsightly things of people in crisis, people shooting up. it's not acceptable and the only way we can address that is adding to our women power and men power of the san francisco police department. this is a great move. we as a commission thank the mayor and the
