Joyce Johnson was fired for judging someone the the content of his character instead of the color of his skin.
There’s trouble in River City and the river we’re talking about is the Hudson.
Joyce Johnson, former Field Director for Obama’s New York state presidential campaign, contends she was booted from her job as president and CEO of the Black Equity Alliance after she endorsed Bloomberg last March.
Bloomberg, a white, Jewish Democrat turned Republican turned Independent, will run against black Democrat city Comptroller Bill Thompson.
Johnson claims a BEA board member said “it would not look good” for the organization’s president to back Bloomberg because he is “white and Jewish.”
Were they more against Bloomberg because he’s white or because he’s Jewish? Sammy Davis Jr was all black and all Jewish. Would he have been acceptable to the BEA? Or what about Barack Obama, who’s half black and half white and about half Christian? Would he have gotten half an endorsement?
Martin Luther King must be spinning in his grave.
