Far-left Boston Mayor Michelle Wu invited only “electeds of color” to a holiday party, according to an email sent by a staffer.

A Wu admin official then claimed the email was ‘mistakenly’ sent out to all Boston city councilors after backlash.

I presume Mayor Michelle Wu identifies as an Elected of Color. 🤔
I wonder if they have a sign outside of their segregated Electeds of Color Holiday Party stating:

ELECTEDS OF COLOR ONLY
NO WHITES ALLOWED

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu remains unapologetic for her decision to host a holiday party on Wednesday at which only “electeds of color” were welcome.

“I am honored to be a part of this group,” she told the media outside Parkman House, the city-owned building where the party was held. “It is a long-standing affinity group that has grown in recent years here in Boston, Massachusetts.”

Wu’s only admission of fault for the racially segregated party was for the fact that her aide, Denise DosSantos, unintentionally invited white members of Boston’s City Council to the party before subsequently uninviting them on account of their race. “It was one of those emails that we’ve all sent at one point or another,” Wu said, smiling.

Frank Baker, a member of city council who was excluded from the party because he is white, voiced his displeasure with Wu’s party. “I do find it divisive, but what are you going to do about it. You don’t want me at a party, I’m not going to come to a party,” Baker told WHDH.

Wu’s failure to recognize the inherent problem with a holiday party that specially excludes people of a certain race is completely in line with how she usually conducts herself. She has long been a radical racial activist who employs the divisive framework that categorizes people as either “oppressors” or “oppressed.”

After the death of George Floyd, Wu, at the time a member of Boston’s City Council and a mayoral candidate, undertook a mission to “demilitarize” the city’s police force in the name of racial justice. This involved taking away the police department’s means of using force. On her mayoral campaign website, Wu stated: “It is all too clear that our city’s public safety structures have not kept all of us safe, particularly our Black residents. We must take concrete steps to dismantle racism in law enforcement by demilitarizing the police, banning weapons like tear gas and rubber bullets and practices like no-knock warrants that endanger our residents of color.” She later asserted, “We don’t need that equipment; we need resources for community-building & peace.”

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu proudly shared a photo of the controversial “electeds of color” holiday party she hosted on Wednesday, showcasing all the smiling government officials of minority backgrounds at the “no whites” gathering.

“Last night was my turn to host the annual holiday dinner for Boston’s elected officials of color—a special moment to appreciate that our affinity group now includes leadership across city, state, county, and federal offices,” Wu wrote in a caption alongside the photo on Instagram.

Wu, 38, came under fire earlier this week when her director of City Council Relations Denise DosSantos emailed the party’s exclusive invitation to all members of the City Council instead of only the “electeds of color.”

Boston’s City Council is comprised of six minority and seven white members, who were not the intended targets of the email.

The aide realized her mistake approximately fifteen minutes after the message and sent a follow-up email to the white council members who received the invitation by mistake.

“I wanted to apologize for my previous email regarding a Holiday Party for tomorrow,” DosSantos wrote in her follow-up. “I did send that to everyone by accident, and I apologize if my email may have offended or came across as so. Sorry for any confusion this may have caused.”

One of the councilors who was uninvited didn’t seem to mind the awkward emails, saying he doesn’t easily offend.

“I don’t really get offended too easily,” Baker, a white Democrat, told the Boston Herald. “To offend me, you’re going to have to do much more than not invite me to a party.”

“I find it unfortunate that with the temperature the way it is, that we would further that division,” he added.

As a fan of Equality, I disagree with you on this one. For this to come from a Democrat- a celebration, invitation only event with a planned event where they thumb their nose at Diversity and Inclusion, there should be outrage.

Why then not just celebrate slavery? It wasn't an event they planned new this year. It's been going on for years!

The Klu Klux Klan can final close up shop. The Progressive Left is now carrying the the banner of Exclusion.

oh yeah, I remembered.
The cost to the city for cleaning up the mess in an area that really wasn't built to accommodate the tons of trash and rat promoting garbage was much higher than in more spacious areas of the city...basically the overhead for sanitation purposes was way over the top for this little enclave. Cost of doing business.

and the residents hated it. I think that's important to understand.

But if it fits your agenda to prove her a racist, I support your right to free dumb speech.

So Italians produce a ton of trash and attract rats? That’s awful.
