Yvette McLeod expressed support during a Miami-Dade County Board meeting for an ordinance that extends the North Central Dade Municipal Advisory Committee’s lifespan. This committee will assess the feasibility of incorporating Brownsville into its own municipality. With the ordinance's approval, Black neighborhoods have an opportunity to explore self-governance. Amid broader discussions, there are concerns regarding how the Trump presidency's policy alterations, particularly the rollback of diversity initiatives, could negatively impact Black communities economically. Community reliance is expected to grow as a response to these challenges.
The ordinance passed, allowing Black neighborhoods in Miami-Dade County to explore the feasibility of becoming a city, a significant step towards self-governance.
With the rollback of diversity initiatives under Trump's presidency, Black residents face increased economic challenges and will need to rely more heavily on community support.
