Keisha Lance Bottoms says she’s “dumbfounded” by Georgia Governor Brian Kemp‘s decision to reopen the state’s economy despite red flags everywhere … so she’s using her voice to try to keep people safe during the pandemic instead.
The Mayor of Atlanta tells us she understands people are going stir-crazy and want to get out, but she believes everyone still needs to be responsible and stay home for now … otherwise coronavirus problems are only going to get worse.
Bottoms points out the businesses set to reopen this week — hair & nail salons, barbershops, massage parlors — practically make it impossible to social distance and pose a huge problem in ATL’s black community … which has already been hit hard by COVID-19.
So, the mayor’s encouraging Georgians to listen to reason coming from health experts and hospital workers bearing the brunt of the crisis … instead of what Gov. Kemp and President Trump are pushing. We know some celeb hair & makeup stylists in Atlanta have her back.
Bottoms knows it’s a challenge, though, because she’s dealing with it in her own house — especially with her 18-year-old son. Listen to what Bottoms tells us about how that’s playing out … it’s clear who’s boss!
BTW … remember this clip, because the Mayor’s gonna be a national star. Just our opinion.
