LA Council Members Taped Making Racist Remarks

October 9, 2022 Democrats, Racism

The Los Angeles Times reports:

Three Latino members of the Los Angeles City Council and a top county labor official held a conversation last fall that included racist remarks, derisive statements about their colleagues and council President Nury Martinez saying a white councilman handled his young Black son as though he were an “accessory,” according to a recording of the meeting reviewed by The Times.

Martinez referred to Mike Bonin’s child as “ese changuito,” or that little monkey, soon after. During the conversation with Council members Gil Cedillo and Kevin de León and Los Angeles County Federation of Labor President Ron Herrera, Martinez also described Council member Bonin at one point as a “little bitch.” De León appeared to compare Bonin’s handling of his child to Martinez holding a Louis Vuitton handbag.

Read the full article. There’s much more. Council member Mike Bonin is openly gay. Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti officiated his marriage in 2014. Early this year Bonin announced that he will not seek reelection. All of the persons named in the above-linked story are Democrats.
