    Where was FLPD?

    City Commission Approves Rubin Stacy Memorial Boulevard as Secondary Name for Segment of Davie Boulevard
    The City Commission adopted a resolution approving Rubin Stacy Memorial Boulevard as a secondary name for Davie Boulevard between I-95 and US-441. In 1935, Mr. Stacy, a black man who was about 29 years old, was lynched in Fort Lauderdale without the opportunity to have legal counsel or a trial after being accused of threatening the life of a white woman. The City of Fort Lauderdale seeks to memorialize this injustice and bring awareness to the negative impacts of systemic racism on our society. City staff and Broward County staff have developed a signage plan that includes modifying or replacing approximately 60 signs. The estimated timeline for installation is 12-16 weeks. For details, visit ftlcity.info/3gCvolx.

    This is almost as bad as spending 800,000 on a crosswalk

    Ahh yes,

    Where was FLPD 100 years ago?? More than half today’s FLPD wouldn’t have been allowed to be FLPD based on their race/ethnicity or gender, but by all means let’s ask “Where was FLPD?”. I would go as far as to say many of current FLPD’s family lineage wasn’t even in the US 100 years ago.

    How about where were the great democrat citizens of Ft Lauderdale? Oh that’s right, they were backing Jim Crow laws through the 60s. Same party of the 90s crime bill. And same party who believes in the crippling Welfare State and “you ain’t black if you don’t do what hey tell you”.
