A couple dozen of protesters showed up outside Los Angeles City Councilman Kevin de León’s El Sereno offices Oct. 13, pressuring him to resign for his participation in a recorded conversation involving four elected officials that included a series of racially charged remarks and discussions over redistricting.
Two of them—former Council President Nury Martinez and former LA County Federation of Labor Ron Herrera—have resigned, but de León and fellow councilman Gil Cedillo have resisted the growing calls.
