Council Member Mink associated middle schoolers with white supremacists and bigots. That was very hurtful.
After all, not all supremacists are white.
Bigots and white supremacists routinely use, albeit with declining efficacy, voting rights violations to block out people not like them from winning elections.
As noted in a previous post, the entire Board of Education is elected at-large, making all seven of its members voting rights violators. Two of them are white, the rest are Black, Latina, or Asian. Undeniably, they fall on the same side of voting rights violations as white supremacists and bigots.
Ms. Mink “won” the Democratic primary with 42% of the vote, implying 58% of the Democrats don’t want her sitting on the county council. Plurality voting is also a tactic used by white supremacists and bigots, so she (Asian, female, progressive, choose your demographic) is also just like a white supremacist and bigot on that issue.
White supremacists and bigots are associated with opposing “pro-choice.” Ms. Mink has made it clear that she is opposed to pro-choice in the schools, so she sides with them on that issue as well
My advice: before publicly berating school children for being bigots and white supremacists, you may want to verify that you yourself aren’t one.
