Mattie Parker on the importance of public safety
I interview many public officials for American Habits, and I came away especially impressed with Fort Worth Mayor Mattie Parker. In fact, when I mentioned I had spoken to Parker to a few of her mayoral colleagues across the country, they had glowing words about her.
In this short clip from our recent conversation, Parker discusses crime, public safety and the importance of maintaining order in a growing city.
Look for the full interview with Parker, and conversations with six other mayors from across the country right here at American Habits in August.
