Original Note:
Mr. Jennings is referring to a program started in 2023 that says, “Firefighting is mostly white males.” Mr. Jennings actually says, “I’m wondering now that if your house is burning down, how much do you care what color the firefighters are?,” not that they aren’t white enough. https://www.npr.org/2023/06/05/1180213128/firefighting-is-mostly-white-and-male-a-california-program-aims-to-change-that
