Your inquisitive Peasant came across this story in the latest
issue of National Review. I am posting NR's take on the
events regarding the story word for word, as I cannot do
it justice by adding anything to it or introducing a
perspective from a different angle. Here it is:
"Boston Mayor Michelle Wu sent an invitation for an
"electeds of color" holiday party to state officials who
didn't meet that criterion. She publicly regretted the
faux pas. She did not regret, but certainly should have,
her agreement to host an "electeds of color" gathering
in the first place. Individuals have the right to associate
with or dissociate from whomever they wish, however
divisively, but public servants --- in their capacity as
public servants --- shouldn't self-segregate from their
colleagues and fellow citizens. The mayor is a
Massachusite and a Boston first, and in her public role
she should identify with her entire political community."

The Democratic party historically has planted its roots into segregation. The color of your skin has been very important and lucrative for the Democratic party to divide and conquer the masses. Whatever position they proclaim today, for instance, democracy, it usually is just the opposite . For example, taking a candidate off the ballot, such as Trump, in many states would seem the opposite of democracy, but not to the Democratic Party.
ReplyDeleteThat's how the Democrats roll. Divide, conquer, double-talk, and disenfranchise. You are a most astute observer of our country's political scene!
