Wow. Never thought I'd see this sort of thing from a public official in Southern California.

Good to see some things do change.

That was incredible. I couldn't figure out why he was crying (afraid of losing his office?) until he got to the part about his daughter and staff members. Then I realized he was crying out of shame for not waking up sooner about the separate but equal thing.

It's an amazing example of realization dawning on someone and them thinking, "how could it have taken me this long?"
