Los Angeles Confronts Racial Divide Anew After Leak of Racist Comments
New York TimesMAR 28 2023
While this scandal has shocked public opinion and provoked national outrage, Nury Martinez and her colleagues represent the true nature of so-called "progressive" politicians. Despite their appealing rhetoric, they are often identity-obsessed racists who simply use Black people to advance their own agenda and win elections.
The leaked recording shows that Gen Z and millennial Latinos must become politically active to promote multiracial solidarity. Disputes between groups of color have long been promoted by white supremacy and American political culture on older generations, with Martinez's remarks being a product of US colonialism across Latin America.
