This week, in the midst of a surprisingly successful presidential campaign, South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg canceled several events to go back to his Indiana town and address a crisis: A white police officer with a history of making racist comments shot and killed a 54-year-old black man named Eric Logan. And Buttigiegs black constituents are less than pleased with his response.

Hows he handling it? Oliver Davis, the longest-serving black member of the South Bend Common Council, told The Washington Post . Well, he talked to the media before the family. He skipped the family vigil, full of black residents. And then he gave a speech to the police. So, how do you think that went over?

Buttigieg announced on Friday that he would stay in South Bend through the weekend to march with community members and promote healing, canceling several campaign events to do so.

Before this week, Buttigiegs campaign had taken some heat for its lack of clear policy plans . In an interview with BET contributor George Johnson about police brutality earlier this month, though, the South Bend mayor said he hopes to bring some of the measures we have taken in South Bend to the national level words that, in light of Logans death, may now fall flat.
