"Mayor
Bob"
|

When
Wayne's blunder started the fire fight, Freedom Mandela hit the deck and
tried to astrally project himself back to Douglaston as bodies crashed
down around him. The Movement was certainly worth some risk, but Freedom
never really meant any of that "Kill Whitey" rhetoric.
He was more inclined towards "Verbally Abuse Whitey,"
"Over-Charge Whitey," or something to that effect. When
The Movement ended with bitter in-fighting among the Panthers, Freedom
made a right turn into politics, eventually heading the City Council. He
was simultaneously running the non-profit political action group reach,
founded by Wayne before Wayne was forced to flee the country. Oh,
and he was no longer Freedom Mandela. Now he was Bob. Bob Schwartz. And, on Christmas Day, 1991, with the sudden resignation of the mayor, Bob Schwartz moved from Brooklyn Borough Hall to Gracie Mansion. by James Fry and Andrew Pepoy CLICK IMAGE TO CONTINUE CONCRETE JUNGLE |
