The Democratic mayor of Boston has sparked outrage after inviting city councilors to a holiday party intended only for 'electeds of color.'
Michelle Wu's invitation for the December 13 'Electeds of Color Holiday Party' appeared to have been sent out to all councilors by her aide, Denise DosSantos.
DosSantos followed up the email 15 minutes later apologizing for the email, clarifying that it was only meant for the city's six councilors of color. Seven white council members were reportedly not intended to be invited.
'I wanted to apologize for my previous email regarding a Holiday Party for tomorrow,' DosSantos, a black woman, wrote.
'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.'
DosSantos made no apology for actually planning to host a racially segregated party. Wu has been slammed by outgoing City Councilor Frank Baker, who told the Boston Herald that it was 'unfortunate and divisive.'
The move quickly divided Boston's city council, with some saying they were not offended by the party while others questioned Wu's judgement.
Michael McCormack, an attorney and former five-term Boston city councilor, said Wu's hosting an exclusive party is not typical of her office, and argued former mayors Tom Menino and Ray Flynn would have invited the entire chamber.
'The problem is that Boston and race, unfortunately, are synonymous,' McCormack said.

Stupid Chinese bitch panders to the blacques who don’t consider Asians “colored”.
In keeping with the Christmas Spirit.
“Is this even legal ?”
I don’t know about legal, but it’s definitely not logical. Does Wu not realize that the real people “of color”...ie blacks... do not consider her, an Asian, as “one of them”? Is she really that out of touch with reality?
Sick racists.
Fire them.
Oh, they’ll allow white people at the party. Somebody has to serve the drinks and clean up.
Ya , my family is from Boston ,LOL
Those were the good old days.
It’s time to quit pretending racism is okay “depending on the context”, which has recently been cited regarding racism, murder, rape and torture. Somethings have no context in which they are okay. Ever. There are moral absolutes that aren’t situationally dependent on anything, and racism is one of them.
Next to Marxists and mooselimbs.
And they need to be sent back to Africa.
From the article: “. . . it’s completely natural for elected officials of color to gather for a holiday celebration.”
Forced integration - it was a noble experiment.
She has been proven insane again and again.
I pray that one day soon white folks will get a clue and stand up against this crap.
Nothing wrong with that.
Everyone wants to be with their own kind.
“ There are moral absolutes that aren’t situationally dependent on anything, and racism is one of them”
Please define “racism”.
Self loathing Asians now? Wow...that’s a new one on me.
Of course they are, scum always defend scum
We were taught in high school science that black is the absence of color. And white contains all the colors. That’s why light can break up into a rainbow.
Then have a Whites only Christmas party.
And watch all hell break loose.
Black people inviting “blacks only” to a party...No problem...
White people inviting “whites only” to a party...BIG PROBLEM..
