Behind closed doors, Los Angeles City Council President Nury Martinez made openly racist remarks, derided some of her council colleagues and spoke in unusually crass terms about how the city should be carved up politically.
The conversation remained private for nearly a year, until a leaked recording reverberated explosively Sunday and turned the focus of a sprawling metropolis toward Los Angeles City Hall.
By Sunday evening, three of Martinez’s council colleagues had called for her to resign. The leak had quickly become a new and incendiary issue in the coming Nov. 8 election, with candidates — some of them endorsed by Martinez — having to stake out positions.
Martinez and the other Latino leaders present during the taped conversation were seemingly unaware they were being recorded as Martinez said a white councilmember handled his young black son as though he were an “accessory” and described Councilman Mike Bonin’s son as “Parece changuito,” or “like a monkey.”
During the conversation with Councilmembers Gil Cedillo and Kevin de León and Los Angeles County Federation of Labor President Ron Herrera, Martinez described Bonin at one point as a “little bitch,” according to a recording of the meeting reviewed by The Times. Martinez also mocked Oaxacans and said “F that guy … He’s with the Blacks” while speaking about George Gascón.

“...in Los Angeles the Mexicans have always hated the Blacks and vice versa.”
In a way, I understand black animosity towards newcomers. Blacks have been in America for 100s of years and every new batch of immigrants seems to surpass them in a generation or two—sometimes in even less than a generation. They put this down to racism even though immigrants from Africa seem to be more successful than they are.
I wish I could think of a fix for this problem, but I can’t. I don’t know if there is a fix.
Go to Japan sometime. Or Korea. Or any Asian country. Racism is a total way of life. If anything the USA is the least racist country.
>>YouSaid>> You do not see the issue with referencing some other person’s black child as a monkey?
Well, I would not say that in the presence of the child’s parents. That would be kind of rude, I think.
I would think calling a child a donkey in front of his parents rude also.
You know, there are monkeys indigenous in every major continent except North America and Australia.
The true racists are revealed and yet again, they’re democrats. What a surprise. Will the black community wake up? Doubt it, too far gone.
you guys are killin me here
One day LA’s black community will be pining for the days when all they had to worry about was keeping ol’ whitey on the plantation.
democRATS are RACIST?
Who woulda thought.
Local commie media covering it like crazy here yet funny thing NO ONE mentions that ALL involved are DEMOCRATS
I call my nephew “Boy” apparently “Boy” is a white racist word go figure
“I wish I could think of a fix for this problem, but I can’t. I don’t know if there is a fix.”
I have the perfect fix.
Repeal the 16th and 17th amendments.
Take away the power of Federal government.
Give it back to the states.
Liberals really are the most horrible racists. And their racism comes from people with various degrees of melanin in their skin.
Preference for one’s own race ahead of other races is just biology, and the sentiment exists in all Human cultures.
The West has done the best job of overcoming this of all the cultures in the world. In fact one could argue it has gone overboard in doing so and if has become self-destructive.
The fix...
I don’t know that American blacks are held in very high esteem in the nations of west Africa. Of course that doesn’t stop those nations’ demands for ‘reparations’ because of the slave trade.
I’m not surprised they don’t get along. Hell, they can’t even get along here.
My concern is getting them to leave, not their future success.
That is up to them as they have largely proven they will never give up the victimhood mentality.
I have the perfect fix. Repeal the 16th and 17th amendments.
Yes and it’s a place where they still have monkey bars.
Dem on Dem violence.
