Black NYC politician slams DSA as ‘white supremacy’ as growing Dem feud spills onto social media
A prominent black Big Apple politician compared Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s cronies in the Democratic Socialists of America to white supremacists as a bitter rift among Democrats spilled out onto social media.
Queens Borough President Donovan Richards went in on the DSA for ignoring race on its crusade to grow its ranks and dismantle capitalism.
“White supremacy comes in all forms,” Richards posted on social media late Sunday.
The harsh reaction came from a debate online after a report in the New York Times highlighted how the extreme left wing of the Democratic Party focuses on furthering the group’s agenda and largely has blinders on when it comes to black and Latino members and issues important to them in the five boroughs.
The DSA has backed candidates from minority backgrounds, including two of its most prominent members — AOC, who is Latina, and Mamdani, who is Uganda born — but the group’s makeup is overwhelmingly white.
According to a 2021 survey, 85% of the DSA is white.
The group also has a history of using vulnerable districts to parachute in one of its own instead of building canidates from locals, insiders have claimed.
Richard doubled down on the accusation, sharing a Maclom X quote that called white liberals “dangerous… foxes.”
