Flint City Council Meetings

[@sheilap9854]

Mr. Mays Was Right When He Said he's Not in the Clique, that's why so many of his colleagues Dislike him!!!! We Need More Like Him!!

[@barbarareel71mom1son04]

Yes, and anytime you're not willing to join the clique, people will be against you. They act like middle schoolers sometimes.

[@CoreyKing-bs4or]

He speaks the truth

[@alwayssomething8344]

Only a fool would allow people to attack them and say slick 💩 to them and not say anything. That’s what they hate about Mays!!! A black man who isn’t afraid to speak up 😮

This is the first time in history that America is paying attention to local government legislation. If we had a mays in congress just imagine how the lobbyists would feel. Mays for congress

[@tcapricorn2696]

That part

[@alwayssomething8344]

I agree but those people would try and have him killed cause he’s outspoken and ( let’s not forget) they feel that a black person should just sit there and shut up and he would be fighting for so many more people and they wouldn’t have that. They only want the weak blacks so the others have a chance but Mr Mays they would NEVER!!! He’s the realest on the board in Flint and seems to be the only real one. Oooh but it would be nice 👍

Mr. Mays I commend you for speaking up and speaking OUT! It's a sad state of affairs that you seem to be out numbered in terms of support for standing on the side of right, opposed to go along to get along. Kudos!

[@danasmith667]

I sought out a full council meeting for the express purpose of seeing how it would work on a normal day. The Internet of course is having a lot of fun cheering on councilman Mays, and I believe that this is an example of why he has been in office for 9 years. This is a thoughtful intelligent man and if it were not for the fact that he was Black and boisterous, you all would be celebrating him i.e. Trump. I celebrate you Councilman Mays and wish you many many more years in service to the United States and Flint, Michigan and your constituents.

See how smoothly this meeting went without everyone attacking him until the end when the lady started acting a certain way towards Mr Mays but I guess he’s supposed to allow people to treat him any kind of way and he’s not having it and i don’t blame him

[@Blackjuans]

Amen! Thats the whole problem. Thats what Fields and Galloway used to do until Galloway and Mays came to an understand and stood against Fields, Eva, and Griggs. I really believe the rigged this election tp get Herkenroder in to fk with Mays because Galloway would come to his defense and would help supply a positive vote in favor of Mays.

Eric's passion gets misconstrued as disrespect🤔 In my opinion ‼ He can be annoying and take awhile to get to the point but he always gets there and all the brother wants is fair treatment, respect and order😡 lol love Mr. Mays

[@DevaJones03]

thats exactly what it is. very often times they try to paint his passion as arrogance or that he's mad etc....often times the passionless are intimidated by those who are full of passion.

[@alwayssomething8344]

Exactly 😊and in my opinion they know that but will never admit it cause there’s a lot he’s doing right and that’s why they treat him like they do

[@setybtv]

Agreed. They may not like how he communicates, but you can't dictate such things in a team environment. You have to meet people where they are just as they must do you. Especially when the personalities don't mesh naturally.

mr. Mays know his stuff, and they can grasp on to that! No don’t stop being who you are…

[@darwingraves372]

A council member is supposed too vote for a project if that council member thinks it is a good project, NOT bc he/she expects the rest of the council to rubber-stamp any old pet project he/she brings before council, even if the idea is half-baked (Like most of Erics ideas/projects are) Eric is a loud-mouth failure. .

[@christineleech505]

Well Darwin Graves, if people don’t like his delivery, and if no one gets it that’s not on him, what I notice is the discrimination towards him, also just because he talks a lot to explain why he won’t vote on something, is respect to his colleagues I feel , but he’s definitely famous around the world the way he keeps it real, he definitely is NOT a handkerchief head Negro, like some people of color and some that do not agree with him, fit the description…

If the 6 council members voted for the betterment of all the wards and not just certain wards, things would be better. They are too ignorant to understand that.

I just started watching this, and I see the discrimination.

[@thedhive6512]

Eric Mays is entertaining but his biggest concern is himself and how he's perceived. He does not prioritize legislating on behalf of the first ward of Flint. He intentionally prevents the council from progressing when he's unhappy and obstructs legislative processes to fight petty battles. He has the temperment of an old grandma. This is one of the reasond why Black jurisdictions struggle. They support whatever seems loud and funny as opposed to effective. He's not alone. Most of the council lacks experience. But thats the unfortunate nature of poverty. The best and brightest leave and never return so youre stuck with this.

[@karmarryotwilley]

I wholeheartedly agree with you on supporting Mr. Mays. He has consistently shown his dedication and commitment to the people of Flint. Mr. Mays not only challenges the narrative but also holds those in power accountable for their actions. When it comes to the financial well-being of the city of Flint, Mr. Mays has a deep understanding of the numbers, and more importantly, he has the higher-order skills to foresee how their decisions will impact the lives of the citizens. We need more leaders like Mr. Mays, who genuinely care about the people they serve and strive to make a positive change in their communities. Let's continue to support Mr. Mays and others who stand up for the best interests of the people. Together, we can create a brighter future for Flint and beyond.

Only thing I will say that Uncle Mays may need training on is how to get his point across and then leave it on the floor. I think because they try to paint Mister maze as someone who likes to argue and cause trouble is because once you say something about him he's not letting it go at all and if it takes all the time that he has that is allowed for speaking that he will use every bit of that time he may even come back a second or third time just to make sure they heard him lol he May just have to tone that down and then ain't s*** they can say to him
