Michelle Wu – the far-left Democrat mayor of Boston – invited only “electeds of color” to her holiday party this year. But, she accidentally sent out the email invite to everyone, whites included!
After receiving rightful backlash, a Wu admin then clarified that the email invitation was “mistakenly” send out to all Boston city councilors – even the ones who weren’t the right skin color!
In case you were wondering: Yes, the party is still happening.
And yes, only black councilors are invited.

Here’s more, from the Boston Herald:
A Wu administration official, on behalf of the mayor, mistakenly sent all Boston city councilors an email Tuesday inviting them to a holiday party that was meant exclusively for “electeds of color,” prompting an apology and mixed reactions.
Denise DosSantos, the mayor’s director of City Council relations, told the body’s “honorable members” that, “on behalf of Mayor Michelle Wu,” she was cordially inviting each of them “and a guest to the Electeds of Color Holiday Party on Wednesday, Dec. 13 at 5:30 p.m. at the Parkman House, 33 Beacon St.”
Approximately 15 minutes later, however, DosSantos sent out a follow-up email to city councilors, apologizing for the prior email, which was apparently only meant for those who were invited. The body includes seven white councilors and six of color.
“I wanted to apologize for my previous email regarding a Holiday Party for tomorrow,” DosSantos, a Cape Verdean 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.”
Whether the email offended the excluded councilors was unclear, several of whom chose not to respond to the Herald’s request for comment.
Fox News also commented:
Boston’s Democratic mayor has come under fire after she sent out invitations for a holiday party intended only for minority city councilors.
Michelle Wu, the city’s first Asian American mayor, recently had her aide, Denise DosSantos, send out an email for the event.
“Honorable members: On behalf of Mayor Michelle Wu, I cordially invite you and a guest to the Electeds of Color Holiday Party,” the email said, according to the Boston Herald.
The city leader quickly drew criticism after it became apparent the email was sent to all city councilors, seven of whom are White. The invitation was meant only for the city’s six councilors “of color.”
ADVERTISEMENTFifteen minutes after the email was sent out, DosSantos apologized and clarified that the invitation was only meant for minority city councilors. However, she did not apologize for planning a party that excluded White city leaders.
“I wanted to apologize for my previous email regarding a Holiday Party for tomorrow,” DosSantos 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.”
What do you think about this?
Are we entering a new era of segregation?
Should Mayor Wu be penalized?
White people welcomed Michelle Wu’s parents into America. They let her attend Harvard University and Harvard law school, and they elected her mayor of Boston.
Wu returns the favor by holding segregated Christmas parties where inferior whites are not allowed.
What a disgusting… https://t.co/BpnZeunpS1
