Happy Black History Month: Boston officials take away black people's rec center to house illegals
In Boston, they have a peculiar way of celebrating Black History Month: By taking away black people's community recreation center their taxes paid for in order to house illegals.
At the same time, they left white people's rec centers still there for the enjoyment of the whites.
As Boston Mayor Michelle Wu said, "It's painfully familiar," that illegals would be sent to the Melnea A. Cass Recreational Complex, while the local black kids would be kicked out.
What's "painfully familiar"? That blacks would be asked to pay the consequences of white-liberal sanctuary city policy, so whites can feel good about themselves?
The black kids, whose families are struggling, don't really have other places they can go unlike, say, the wealthier whites who still have their rec centers.
According to the Boston Herald:
“We are here today because we really don’t have a choice,” Healey said during a news conference. “As you know, families continue to come into this country, continue to come into Massachusetts. … We are here because we need to make sure we have a place for people to go safely.”
Wednesday marked the first day of the Cass serving as a temporary overflow site for migrants, and while state and local officials vowed to embrace those taking up residence for the next few months as “brothers and sisters,” others protested the facility’s conversion.
A handful of residents gathered outside the center, shouting “Shame on Wu” and “Shame on Healey.” One man yelled at police guarding the facility, “It’s a (expletive) money grab. You don’t give a (expletive) about (those) born and raised here.”
A message on one sign read, “Why Roxbury? Try Wellesley!”
Wellesley can take them and sure enough, they are as white as snow. But somehow, they picked Roxbury. According to the City of Boston, there are 30 such youth and family recreational centers run by the city, many in very white districts. Even the fact that they cleared out the airport for this was arguably another way of making the blacks pay, given that most struggling Roxbury residents don't have enough money to use the airport while better-off residents, who are often white, have that kind of money and their need for a migrant-free airport comes first.
But Wu told residents to cheer up, because it would be better for them this way. According to the first video, the migrants would 'help' the community. The City planned to use local vendors to provide free meals for the migrants (that cash-strapped local residents won't get) and once the migrants are cleared out by June, (to places unknown given the lack of a plan), the City will sweeten things for Roxbury by providing long-overdue upgrades to the center, as if they wouldn't do that otherwise.
If you were a local, you'd probably suspect that they expect the migrants to trash the place as they have the hotels of New York, so they'll have to do the upgrades -- for months, or years, or however long it takes.
As for the little kids who need to use the rec center, too bad about that.
No swimming, no track and field, no exercise class to work off their little-kid energies, no arts and crafts classes for them. Why they can't put the illegals in one room, block off the showers, pool and track for part of the day for at least some of the kids to get their exercise in, is unknown, but obviously, illegals' convenience come first, and black kids will always be second priority. So it's off to the streets for the black kids, including the open-air drug market which reportedly is pretty close to the center.
And yes, their families are noticing.
The reaction was like this:
Happy Black History Month, where in Boston, the historic experience of discrimination is celebrated with a live demonstration.

The View accuses black voters turning their backs on the Democrats of being ‘grifters’ in a ‘downward spiral’
As Joe Biden angrily screeched: “If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black!” Independent thinking is not allowed, just servitude.
Black Americans are not permitted to leave the Democrat reservation, but when they disobey there’s hell to pay, and bigoted mudslinging attacks ensue—they’re denigrated with the “Uncle Tom” or “race traitor” moniker, and now, according to Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg, black Americans leaving the left are in a “downward spiral” and guilty of grifting. See here, from a NewsBusters report yesterday:
The View Previews Black History Month: ‘Downward Spiral of Black Republicans’
In anticipation of the start of Black History Month on Wednesday, ABC’s The View decried “the downward spiral of black Republicans” and smeared ALL of them as “grifters” that would betray America and their race for “power.”
…
They spoke with race baiter and author Clay Cane about his new anti-black Republican book: “The Grift: The Downward Spiral of Black Republicans from the Party of Lincoln to the Cult of Trump.”
…
Teeing up her guest, Goldberg agreed that ‘grifters’ was ‘the right word for them.’ Cane, a liberal extremist, said he was ‘so saddened at the direction’ black Republicans were going.
…
Behar and Cane then attacked [Tim] Scott’s recent engagement to a white woman. They mocked how their names rhymed and suggested he only decided to marry her because it was good optics for a shot at being vice president[.]
Would they have attacked Tim Scott if he were a white man? No, of course not; they’re attacking him specifically because of the color of his skin. Call me crazy, but that’s pretty bigoted.
So by Behar and Goldberg’s standard…
Blacks who support school choice because they don’t want their children locked in failing schools so bad teachers can have job security, are in a downward spiral.
Blacks who don’t want illegals flooding into the country because the former is disproportionately affected, are in a downward spiral.
Blacks who support more police because they too value safe cities and neighborhoods, are in a downward spiral.
Blacks who want lower taxes and less regulation because they’re entrepreneurs and want to achieve the American dream, are in a downward spiral.
Blacks who don’t support abortion because they detest the anti-black eugenics ideology underpinning the agenda, are in a downward spiral.
The entire premise of Black History Month is offensive, because it presupposes that black Americans are an “other” and relegates them to a place outside the rest of the citizenry; American history is black history, and black history is American history. Dedicating a separate month to celebrate “black history” as if these stories somehow don’t have a place in the mainstream American historical record is manufacturing an unnecessary divide; yet they pretend President Trump is the racist causing disunion.
