Boston Mayor Michelle Wu was all smiles as she was joined by other city and state leaders at a 'no whites' holiday reception Wednesday evening.
'I'm proud to host many many of these across all different types of collations,' Wu said outside of the controversial event.
The segregated holiday party for 'electeds of color' has been held for years in Boston, but garnered scrutiny this year after an email invitation was sent to all 13 members of the city council, only for them to be rescinded from the seven white councilors 15 minutes later.

The representatives of those who actually paid for the party (taxpayers) were disinvited!
If you wanna have a segregated party, Fine! Pay for it yourself! Democrats, Parasites all!

If the white people did this, there would be outrage! The media would lead with this for days. One more reason to never vote for a democrat. Unreal

A 2 hour party for 12 people sounds like a snoozefest to me. IMO, if I were among the council members who were uninvited from the party, I would throw a Christmas party and invite ALL the council members and their families. Then, I would tell the media that in the spirit of the season it's especially important to celebrate the "I" in DEI ~ as opposed to the lip service the left always gives it. Additionally, the white council members would be living out Proverbs 25:21-22, showing Boston who the real racists are and how small-minded Wu and her cohorts are. IOW, they shouldn't emulate the non-white council members, stooping to their level.

This is going to be the way it is done going forward. Count on it. These racist democrat hypocrites know no shame. They are trying their best to marginalize whites and are proud of it. Each day another thing happens that would have been impossible just a few years ago.
Democrats believe they re in the ascendancy and their hubris knows no end. Can you even begin to imagine what their policies would really contain if they had free reign? We would be thrown into a state of apartheid against whites. These people are vicious, morally corrupt, and determined to move their evil agenda forward.

This is poisonous, divisive hogwash. Should southern blacks have said "If you don't want me at the lunch counter, I won't go to the lunch counter"?

Blatant bigotry is just fine when leftists practice it.
Any self respecting "whites" wouldn't go anyway. Let them have their pity parties. No one gives a rip.

She's just pandering and affirming her credentials for membership in the cool kids club. So crackers just show up, you were invited and it said of color. You are just not the color she meant but force the issue.

I am surprised the mayor was even invited, guess because she was the mayor. We all know how blacks feel about Asians.

Is Jim Crow Wu going to install "Whites Only" drinking fountains, "Whites Only" restrooms, "Whites Only" dining facilities? Wu is back to the future with sanctioned segregation.

These people call themselves ‘leaders’…they don’t even know the meaning of the word. The “it’s been done for years” retort. Those are words of followers not leaders.

Who cares? She can have anyone at her party she wants, and exclude anyone she wants. This is still America, sort of. Good chance all the silverware will be stolen.

Just like the story in the gospel of the man holding a banquet that no one attended, so he sent messengers out to invite people on the streets, the remaining city council members need to have their own bigger and better party, and open it to people at homeless shelters. Show the racist BIPOCs who the real inclusive people are.

Did she pay for the party or did the city pay? If she paid she can do anything she wishes with her $$. If the city paid, that a different story. If this was in reverse she would be filing a federal law suit.

#21, the issue is that the party was held in a building that's owned by the city (in other words, by the taxpayers). Having an event that is segregated by race at a public accommodation is a clear violation of the law. I hope a Boston taxpayer sues the city for this, but I'm pretty sure there will be no consequences for anyone.

Racist haters gotta pump their hate.
She is no different than the worst racists of the 60s. Will she next have separate bathrooms? "No whites" signs at the drinking fountain?
Hate based on skin color is evil, no matter who does it. Nasty witch.

Asian people are typically smarter than this. When the mailing "mistake" was discovered she should have just acted like "I meant to do that" and let the white folks participate in the adoration ceremony for the colored folk and nobody would have been the wiser. Some democrat politicians are required to check half their brain at the door when they take office, others don't need to.

Blatant Racism, but that's OK as long as it's against White people.
I checked, and to my surprise the Boston Herald actually had an article on it .
"Battenfeld: Michelle Wu defends holiday party excluding white city councilors
Boston Mayor Michelle Wu’s publicly hosted holiday party excluding white elected officials is questionable optics and judgment for someone who is supposed to be uniting the city."
Note the wording...... they studiously avoid the terms 'Racial Discrimination' and 'Racist'.
She's still in the Leftist Club.
Won't nothing happen to her.

The kicker here folks is that the racist, hypocritical, dimwitted mayor Wu is married to a White man, and they have two young sons. Makes one wonder how he really feels about his wifey's blatant racism and division. If anything.

I realize the hard core libs won't, but how would the non-white council (and whatever the mayor is classified as) like it if all those white taxpayers took the hint and left the city?

Wu is a whack job also reports have leaked out of police and EMS having been called to her house several times in the past several months but the truth has been buried by local media.

Imagine the citizens of Boston building neighborhood swimming pools for "Whites Only." Would Mayor Wu smilingly be on hand to cut the ribbon, then be uninvited to the inaugural pool party?
I've always hated the term, "fill-in-the-blank of color." In the 1850 Louisiana census, one side of my mixed Scotts-Irish/Cherokee/Choctaw, Native American family was listed as Free Persons of Color (FPC), the name at the time to delineate American Indians of the "Five Civilized Tribes," who were not subject to slavery, but also a reminder that while they were not slaves, they had no permanent property rights for their homestead farms, which could be taken over by and deeded to carpetbagging whites, including lazy but greedy Bostonians, who didn't participate in clearing the land, digging water wells, building houses, fences, and barns, and raising animals and crops. The family only prospered by sending their sons to fight for the U.S. military in the latter half of the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century. My father's service in WWII and Korea helped move my family into the American middle class. I joined the military at 17, volunteering to do my part during the second half of the 20th century. Boston in 2023, has that 1850 FPC stench to it. Semper Fi.
