Boston Mayor Michelle Wu, a Democrat, has come under fire for planning a “no whites” Christmas Party that specifically sought to exclude white members of the city government.
Wu’s aide issued an apology this week after she mistakenly sent an invite for the mayor’s “no whites” Christmas Party to all members of the Boston City Council when only the “Electeds of Color” were meant to receive the invite.
Oops.
Roughly 15 minutes after the invite went out, the aide, Denise DosSantos, who serves as the mayor’s director of City Council relations, issued an apology.
“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,” the aide added. “Sorry for any confusion this may have caused.”
