If Mayor Zohran Mamdani wants to keep Afua Atta-Mensah on as his chief equity officer, he — and she — owe New Yorkers a whole host of honest, humble and convincing answers about the transparently racist social-media history City Hall tried to scrub.
Our thanks to the busy bee(s) at the New York Young Republicans Club who made records of her X history before it got deleted.
The main problem isn’t her regular use of “comrade” for fellow ultra-lefties; that could easily be a kind of self-aware joking.
It’s the retweets or replies on posts complaining about white women.
- On a tweet griping “we don’t talk about white liberal racism enough,” Atta-Mensah replied: “Facts! It would need to be a series of loooooonnnnnnnggggg conversations.”
- On a thread following a post asking, “Who’s not police but FEELS like police to you?” she reposted the reply, “white women at nonprofit organizations.”
- She replied to “A lot of y’all are Amy Coopers to the Black women in your non-profits every day,” a post comparing white women to “Central Park Karen” Amy Cooper (who called the cops on a black birdwatcher), with, “THIS IS A WHOLE WORD!!!!”
One more wasn’t just about white women:
- Another reply, to a post saying the show “Succession” made the writer want to “tax these people to the white meat,” she answered “Tax Them To The White Meat!!!” — adding a hand-clapping emoji.
Mamdani is already standing by Cea “homeownership is a weapon of white supremacy” Weaver; looking to also brazen his way past Atta-Mensah’s newly-revealed bile would send a pretty clear message that one kind of hate has a home in his administration.
Weaver pretty plainly still holds her odious views, only finding her phrasing “regretful.” Maybe Atta-Mensah can do bter.
Surely, if she really means to do “equity” work, she’ll outright disown her past words — pleading guilty to foolish posturing or ill-conceived venting or something.
We can’t make the mayor fire anybody, nor force his aides to explain themselves — but eventually the public will notice his repeated refusal to even address his appointees’ blatant racism.
