By now you may have heard that a supremacist group distributed racist flyers against Barack Obama in Roxbury. You can view the flyer here.(H/t FogerRox) This was one resident's reaction:Roxbury resident Elizabeth Corsetto said she picked up a flier at the end of her driveway on Saturday thinking it was a supermarket circular, and was shocked to see the headline "Do You Want A Black President?"
"I was like, 'What?"' Corsetto said. "It's a ridiculous piece of literature and blatantly racist."
Corsetto said she was outraged by the incident and had seen other neighbors stuffing the fliers in the trash.
"I'm supposed to draw a conclusion that's what will happen to us if we have a black president?" Corsetto said of the flier's references to Haiti and South Africa. "I want to know how I'm going to fund my retirement with the stock market in the toilet ? those are the facts I want to hear." Your retirement? The stock market in the toilet? Yeah, I think those are some of the things the Republicans don't want to talk about with you, because they know they'll lose on that right now. |
