ms. brown's report, they are typically in the sunset district from mid 1920s and the standardization and cookie cutter approach. significance is derived from the overall architecture front of a group l of the barrel front mediterranean the harder than the situation we have here at duncan street. in case the issues come up, they were briefed, and comments by both appellants to the roof deck. again, the planning department looked at that in the discretionary review approvals and moderately sized, set back from the building edges and does not add to nasz and project. both appellants raised questions about the degree of excavation reviewed by d.b.i. and covered by civil code aekt and to comply with support for the structures. he will do so and the work will be done consistent with existing geotech reports. the last issue was raised by both appellants that this project was demolition. again, the planning department and d. bmenti. looked at that and -- d.b.i. looked at it and concluded that it was not. going to the issues that are raised by mr. sheard, again, i summarize the changes that were

but ms. brown, if you don't mind i'm prom pennsylvania, suburban philadelphia. so if you could talk about that notion as a result of looking at your own history, can you tell us what that felt like and why we should argue that for us and participate that picture? >> thank you so much. there's so many layers to it. what hasn't been mentioned today is the fact that race is a fiction. and slavery, the very concept of race and of one race being superior to another was invented to justify slavery, and it was also deployed in order to have white working class like indentured servants back in virginia, like in the colonial eerla identify with this notion of whiteness and with wealth yr whites rather than identify with enslaved africans and native people with whom they had common cause, so there's a lot of layers to this history that i think for a lot of white americans who feel like this is just an accusation, and this is just yet another case of calling their people historically racist or calling them racist today, in my experience the african-american community is mu

an lgbtq nightclub during latino night, and those who o loves their lives were mostly brown and black neighbors. ms. talib: just this weekend i joined community members, advocates, and local elected officials to demand action on gun violence in our country. hundreds of us gathered for this rally across the street from where organizers were getting ready to open motor city pride, detroit's pride celebration, attracting tens and thousands of people wanting to celebrate the community and recommit to the fight for justice for our lgbtq neighbors. a a few hours after the gun violence rally wrapped up in motor city pride opened, armed neo-nazis right outside of the gates of the festival taunted attendants, creating an unsafe environment for all of us. i bring this up because the fight against gun violence is an intersectional. the fight against hate is intersectional. let us remember those who have been lost to gun violence. let us remember those at pulse, remember those at stone wall douglas. i commend our people who have taken action out of the tragedy that shouldn't have happened at all. it is time fo

brown members. so i have questions about the accuracy the protections against misidentification and obviously civil liberty issues. ms. giuliani want to hear more from you about the testing of amazon's recognition software. the aclu alleges amazon's software incorrectly matched members of congress, identifying them as people who have been arrested for a crime. if members of congress can be falsely matched with the mug shot database, what should be the concern for the average american about the use of facial recognition? >> i mean, with regards to the test i think that one of the most interesting things was that running the test cost us less than a large pizza. it was about $12. and we took photos of members of congress, really ideal conditions, portraits, matched them against mug shots and we found those 28 matches. these were independently verified. i think that one of the things that's important to note is it's not just our test, it's other tests that have noted similar problems with amazon software and other face recognition algorithms. imagine this in the real world. imagine you are arrested or convicted or pulle
