NOT OK!
I think this is just another example/proof that we do indeed live in a racist country and critical race theory is not complete fiction.
Boston Mayor Michelle Wu - No Whites at Christmas Party Please

I think this is just another example/proof that we do indeed live in a racist country and critical race theory is not complete fiction.
There is proof. Trump drove the greatest dem turnout in history in 2020. Trump backed candidates lost in critical swing states in 2022 - Oz, Walker, Lake, etc.
The hate for trump is the only thing that can motivate many dems and independents to vote for Biden. Without him on the ticket, many will stay home or vote for someone like Haley.
How are they not comparable? Both are examples of calling for genocide for a certain group of people. Both are mayoral led parties specifically discriminating based on race.
Guess I’ll go back to enjoying another white day, whatever the fvck that means.
Did you ever see the sweatiest movie of all time? A Time to Kill? McConaughey delivers an incredible closing argument. Influenced from Samuel L Jackson telling him that he sees him as the enemy/different. Jackson is found innocent and the movie ends with the “white enemy” attending the “black gathering”.

The problem we have today is what is deemed “legacy minorities” being outwardly racist is OK.
Look at the follow up email:
'Many groups celebrate and come together in various ways, and it's not about excluding anyone. Instead, it's about creating spaces for like-minded individuals to connect and support each other.'
Good to know ALL PEOPLE of COLOR are like-minded.
So, if Elizabeth Warren and MTG were walking on by this Boston Civics party, they’d be told to keep walking? However, if Barack, Vivek, and Tim Scott strolled past, they’d be invited in? I want to make sure I understand what like-minded individuals means.
We live in a country with racist individuals. These racist individuals increase the volume of their racist behavior affecting all of us.
And like any survival instinct, we retreat to what we best know in order:
- our self
- our family
- our community
- our race
- our nation
In the entire animal world, we are one of a few that try and do assimilate. But the racists in the left and right can’t handle it/try to make money and power off of it.
The problem is that when racist individuals get together their power to do racist things gets bigger. To use the example at hand, you have a party where white folks can't go. It's being held by a person with power (in this case the mayor of Boston). I'd suggest that there's going to be some business discussed at that party and maybe even some deals made. Since those deals are by definition being made by people that showed up to a whites not allowed event, I doubt that they will be that great for white folks. That's wrong.
NOW, back to a broader example. Our lawmaking bodies in this country have historically and even into recent times been populated mostly by old white guys. Now these old white guys discuss business and make deals... often without folks of color being involved. Again, there's doubt about whether these deals are great for folks of color. And THAT'S what critical race theory is all about. It's not WOKE or any of this other crap, it's just the theory that laws were made in this country that are to the disadvantage of folks of color.
Critical race theory, DEI, ESG, et al. is garbage, racist, rat poison. Look no further than this week and the testimony by the 3 leaders from our "top" universities. Look no further than the Boston mayor holding "no whites" parties. Obama's produced a film that says "don't trust white people." These people are lemmings, mindless drones and we are letting them lead our country into the slaughter like mindless cattle.
We are all one human race, why divide on skin color? What happened to MLK's i want to be judged on the content of my character and not the color of my skin? The whole racist ideology needs to be soundly defeated and we need to return to a meritocracy based system.
If I was not clear I would 100 per cent supporta sane reasonable national policy across all 50 states instead of having 50 state legislatures patchwork 50 different versions
In some cases I think states rights takes precedence
I think in this instance we need to have a universal standard
Now to tackle gun control LOL
All of this…. Is like mostly correct.
Critical Race Theory is a terrible name and doesn’t address the historical issue. By and large, immigrants of all kinds around the world have made it big here. Better than ANY country on the planet. That’s a fact.
More Difficult For Some Race Fact is accurate. CRT term is selected because it has the ability to be sprinkled into everything. If you have the ability to sprinkle it into everything, you can then use it that “everything is racist” all the time as a leverage tool against people. It’s a CRT golden ticket 🎫 to perpetuate more racism.
Therefore it never ends and it’s intended to never end because the leverage it provides.
Has it been harder than others? Sure. Has some of it been directed at certain races by white scumbags while many of us embrace people as a whole? Yes.
I’d like to know what we are telling ourselves at the historical most respected academic institution is still in the leadership role after that clown show last week? The WHITE PENN president resigned, the BLACK HARVARD president stays. Why?
We’ve gone through a ton of societal advancement to now spend our time being more racist than ever before on full display?
We are actually telling ourselves that being racist is just fine.
Come on. Don't be obtuse. You seem to smart not to understand the contextual differences.
As far as white day...have you ever went to a function, club, etc. where you where the only white guy? I have. And it can be involuntarily uncomfortable. Now imagine that happening every day of your life as a minority. Every time you walk in a place it's probable that you're the only one that looks like you.
Being in the majority comes with its perks, so there's nothing wrong with them celebrating accomplishment by a people who are outnumbered and face obstacles by some members of the majority to their success in life.
Wu addresses controversy around 'electeds of color' holiday party invitation
She said a mistake was made when an invitation meant for elected officials of color was sent to officials who do not fit that description and later rescinded.

Now we know that it is a yearly tradition to do a no whitey allowed party, on the governments dollar. And to boot, she thinks it's ok. This is that DEI at work. The "I" stands for inclusion in case you were wondering. Harvard Grad. Embarrassing. Taxations without representation.
FWIW, she was asked to host the gathering this year. She didn't personally send out the invitations. And she's a good person and a good mayor and as far removed from being a racist as can be.
This is total garbage. The unfortunate thing is when any group of people want to be special, they create a situation where they will not be equal. Special treatment removes the concept of equal treatment.
I don’t doubt that. The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
But she should be forced to resign. This is the very definition of racist behavior and the fact that she doesn’t understand that means she is not qualified for the job.
You're really blowing this whole thing way out of proportion.
In and of itself, I would agree with you that this is not THAT big of a deal. She has every right to have a no whites party on her own dime, but she does NOT have that right on the governments dime. The government represents WE THE PEOPLE. Not we the White people, or we the Black People. We the people is everyone.
My bigger problem is that this is not an isolated incident. The anti-white racism is gaining steam in this country and its a weird path to say the least. She should not be allowed to keep her job. A "No Racism" policy should be a basic tenant of any public office. In 2023 one would think that would be an obvious, not confrontational statement. Yet, here we have people defending a racist mayor.
The Democrats, correctly, set the policy of zero tolerance racism and now they must live by their own rules.

First and foremost she isn't a racist. And nothing will come of it because it isn't as big of a deal as you are making it. She wasn't the one who organized the party and she wasn't the one who sent out the emails.
She's the mayor of Boston and that certainly isn't an easy job. It's not so much her policies but more her demeanor.
First, I love that you are taking a communication sent by aid to the Mayor of Boston and attributing it to all liberals... even going so far as to call us "assholes".
Second, do you also denounce this group for racism?
National Black Republican Association
The mission of the National Black Republican Association (NBRA) is to be a resource for the black community on Republican ideals and promote the traditional values of the black community which are the core values of the Republican Party: strong families, faith in God, personal responsibility, quality education, and equal opportunities for all. This website details the organization's history, membership, and policy positions.
This is not going to be received well but here goes:
I really don't GAF about minorities in government having a minority only party. Whites have been having whites only parties for far longer in this country. The fact that boomer white males get upset about minorities having minority only parties is exactly why they should keep having them. You aren't invited. You guys talk all the time about 'reverse racism' etc etc. I would agree it could be construed as racist if you are too smooth brained to understand these people's struggle in the USA and what they had to overcome. So let them have their solidarity and try to enjoy your own Christmas instead of poo pooing on others.

I have little to no issue with the gathering itself as it stands, historically.
And the mayor….. she’s not my concern.
It’s the follow up email cleaning up the error?
'Many groups celebrate and come together in various ways, and it's not about excluding anyone. Instead, it's about creating spaces for like-minded individuals to connect and support each other.'
Outwardly admitting that skin color of all kinds are like-minded and those “absent” of color aren’t. Seriously, WTF is that?
TLDR version: @firefiver is an avowed racist.
Governing not on laws, not on principles, but feelings.
What exactly is governing about a holiday party?
Actually, you know what I already know you can't even form a full thought so... its ok if you just keep going acting and behaving the way you do. Accusing me of racism for sympathizing with a group you seem to have trouble understanding the motivations of.
Although it was a segregated party
White boy me is OK with people having such parties
Like ladies night out
Or mens night out
Or all male golf
or all female bridge club
Its OK to do some of that
the anti-racists bringing back segregation is incredible...liberals in real life are funnier than any satirical story you could ever come up with
Dude, just say that you are ok with racism. The only thing I am doing is pointing out your blatant hypocrisy.
You are ok with discriminating by race. By definition that is racist.
Keep going, I like watching you squirm.
It’s ok to do all of that but not on the governments dime. Government sponsored racism is wrong on every level no matter if it’s racism against white, blacks or purples. Just checking, we fought wars over this, right?
I will agree that what is done privately and with private money and then with public money constitutes two totally different approaches
Just saying I am OK with people having discrimination or filtering when its not public money
When one is elected or it is public money the approach must be all inclusive
All inclusive means that the government organization needs to be careful of optics
So I hope that explains my position
If the mayor of Boston used public money for the meeting then the money for example should have been approved by her full council lets say as research specific and had a public notice
Still a meeting or even party like that walks a very gray line as mayors meeting with multiple council members even at a private party constitutes a council meeting and must have public notice and minutes published
there are some exceptions but yes I think the mayor made a bad choice
I agree 100%. On your own dime you can do what you want. No argument from me.
I am also adamant that government discriminating based on race is, by definition, racist and massively illegal.
One thing I don't think many people get (not calling you out at all) is that white's make of the majority of the population.
from google "As of July 1, 2022, United States Census Bureau estimates that 75.8% of the US population were white alone, while Non-Hispanic whites were 59.3% of the population"
This means that the probability of a white person being in the majority at parties, in congress, in leadership positions etc. is just way higher than any other race/color. The DEI movement wants to equalize things for people of color and other ways that they identify themselves (transgender, non-binary etc.), but the math just doesn't hold up given that you have will have a much larger percentage of the population being in position to get jobs, be leaders etc. Statistics and probabilities play a large role in this. Once you start promoting/hiring based on color/how someone identifies, you can certainly narrow the percentages of "white" people in certain areas, but then you are discriminating against whites if they are more qualified.
There have certainly been more opportunities for whites due to color in the past and there is still a glass ceiling for women in the workplace, but this gap has been shrinking on its own. My personal opinion is that DEI divides us even more......
I see your point. And maybe DEI has negative effect on some, but imo that's a personal issue if it does. My experience in discussions with many participants of DEI programs is that listening to others point of view and sharing with others that don't look like me, or come from where I'm from, has taught things that I or them hadn't ever thought of or realized. Imo it may not help change some folks, but it can't hurt.
