I think it's important for white people to vocally denounce this shit as evil and racist but also EMBARRASSING, it is embarrassing to me as a white person!!!

You ever stop and think about CASABLANCA? You ever stop and think about "Welcome back to the fight, this time, I know our side will win?" You ever think about a bar full of people defiantly singing La Marseillaise, played by a soundstage full of Jewish refugees? You ever think about CASABLANCA??????

Glad you brought this up - this Mexican is the first and only in this sport, and everyone was impressed by her determination - the USA gold medalists were so sweet, she removed her skis and hugged her dearly. The MSNBC cut out all of it. Why? That's the best of the #Olympics! empathy and love.

This video is a nice encapsulation of the success of Mamdani’s overall comms strategy - a slightly stunt-y, surprise-and-delight way to celebrate New Yorkers and government in service of New Yorkers
Everyone in the world comes to get married at the NYC Marriage Bureau. Last week, the Mayor stopped by to officiate a few of those ceremonies. 
 
Thank you to all the couples who shared their joy with us. Happy Valentine's Day, New York.
