    'I'm Not Your Field N—': White Men Go On Racist Tirade Against Black Mayor

    Two white men launched a racist attack against a Black mayor during a city council meeting in Lawrence, Kansas.

    The July 9 attack stemmed from a lawsuit filed by Michael Eravi , who alleged that his rights were violated when he was trespassed from a city-supported homeless camp in Lawrence, per Lawrence Journal-Word . Eravi requested Judge Julie Robinson to amend his lawsuit during the July 9 meeting.

    Robinson dismissed the suit with prejudice, prompting Eravi to berate Mayor Bart Littlejohn , one of two Black people on the city's council.

    “Trust me, Bart, if you were the only colored person on that dais, I would be saying what I wanna say right now,” Eravi said.

    The man then went on to hurl racial slurs and make remarks about slavery.

    “Oh, f*** you and your smile. I’m not your field ni****, bi***” Eravi said.

    When Littlejohn asked Eravi to leave, the man responded: “You can’t ask me to leave. That’s protected speech. I am not your field ni****.”

    “Son of a bi***... he [Littlejohn] wants to remove me because of my speech, that he has instigated all f*cking night in here,” Eravi continued.

    Eravi's tirade ended with Littlejohn calling a five-minute recess. However, when the council returned, another white man took the podium and attacked the council.

    “Y’all mother f***ers are so f*king soft. A f*king word shuts down the meeting?” the second man said.

    “It is letters together that form a word that comes out of our mouth, and you can’t tolerate that?” he continued, referring to Eravi's N-word use.

    As the council refused to respond, the man continued on his tirade, comparing the N-word to "cracker" and "honky."

    The attack ended with the man walking out of the meeting.
