The Mayor of Boston, Mass threw a Holiday Party for people of color only. Is this racist?

[exitseven]

Are you surprised that she is a Democrat?

[lightbulb27]

I've never seen such thing, other than maybe Obama's all black party by invitation only. Unbelievably offensive and should be fired. You wouldn't get away with that anywhere else. My family is all mixed, we invite everyone. What is wrong with these people and for what justification?

Wu Wu... what is wrong with you?

wow , it is surprising this made it to MSN. They usually cover for democrats.

[lightbulb27]

and I just love this "“I don’t really get offended too easily,” Baker told the Boston Herald. “To offend me, you’re going to have to do much more than not invite me to a party.”"
Ya think he'd be going off the ledge emotionally if Trump did that, or any republican. It's all mind control at this point...

Whom wants to crash that party... dressed as ol' Saint Nick?

The Mayor was questioned about this. She assured everyone that there will be another party at the same fancy place that will be all inclusive. I think it should be a whites only party.

[lightbulb27]

it really goes to show how great the breakdown is if some people cannot go to a party with white people. The black people were emotionally abused in the girlfriend and other media circus events from which many are now traumatized.. and I assume... don't feel good going to a party with such people (california school had "safe areas" for black people). My guess is that's the driver and if so, very concerning. I'd leave it open to all so people can de compress some from the media.
citizens are paying for this and twice? unreal... time for a boston "tea party"...

We didn't have any of this when Trump was President. I went to work at a college in 2002. In the cafeteria all the kids would eat together. Fast forward 15 years and the black kids sit on one side and the white kids sit on the other. I don't know what happened but I think Obama had some influence on this

[AviatorTom]

Yes, that's racist, and a violation of federal law. If she charged the party to the city (which she probably did), she owes the city that money... out of her own pocket.

Having another party for all races doesn't undo the wrong... in fact, it makes it worse, because now people of color get two parties while others get only one.

There are two things going on in Boston yesterday. The holiday party and there was a vote by the city council to let non citizens vote in local elections. The vote was almost split but it passed. I do not know but I would bet that it was all the people that did not get invited to the Mayor's party that voted against it.

[sage2021]

So, does that mean we can do a "White's Only" celebration?
To be honest, I miss seeing white people anymore. Where I live there's ever type of color cept white. Year's ago it had more white people. Oh well.

The Mayor's office accidently sent invitations to everyone on the city council where half of them are white. The white folks had to be uninvited but the whole thing ended up on the 6 o'clock news. Now she is exposed as a racist so she has to hold another Holiday party for everyone. It's okay, its only taxpayer's money.

[exitseven]

I would like to be at the POC only party and listen to all of them talk about the evil white man and how he is their oppressor. Maybe they will have the Director of Reparations (I swear I am not making this up) give a speech about how many millions they all deserve.

[douride2]

So then it would be fine if they had a whites only holiday party! Yea right ! I think not. It wasn't racist but still not right in my opinion.

[douride2]

Thanks for a MHO.

[razelove]

I want to say no so that white only parties, groups, and white lives matter can be non-racist concepts.

[OlderAndWiser]

Are you surprised that I didn't see this story on CNN?

[exitseven]

That's why I am putting out on GaG.

[Cutegirl06]

Yeah that's totally racist. But if you say that you're the racist makes no sense 🙄

[RageBabe]

I don't think so, but because I'm not American, it doesn't really matter what I believe. Lol

[Anonymous]

Yep, it sure is and her excuse was incredibly lame.

[exitseven]

She never expected to get caught.

[Opinion Owner]

I think so, because the original email was sent by accident, lolol.

[worldscolide]

Imagine if the threw a party and said "Whites only" If you think that is racist, than yes her excluding a skin color is indeed racist.

[MannyFrs]

its definitely racist

also if there ever was a thing called white privilege that skank

Britney Griner took it all away with her stupid ass bs release

[Dargil]

In the loose, revisionist definition of "racism", yes it is.

[RealMarek]

No, I would be shocked if the mayor of Boston was a Republican.

[Pterodon]

As racist as it gets. What do you expect from a democrat

[Cubus]

Yes, it is racist.

[gorydetails]

Of course, it is. And no, I'm not surprised.

[Sparkie460]

Yes totally racist if you ask me

[imfreeze95]

Yes it is racist
