What if we are white but not privileged? Is Covid coming for us also?

What if I'm white and not privileged? Do I need to wear a mask?

Expecting the mayor of Chocolate City not to race bait is like expecting a fish not to swim.

How is this NOT racist?

What if it said, “But if you are black and uneducated, covid is still coming for you....”

Wait so either covid is racist and white privilege protects you or it doesn't

Can't have it both ways

What if you are black and privileged, can you still get sick from the virus?

By that same token, is malaria racist against whites?

Blacks with a partial sickle cell trait are immune to it.

Questioning logic is a sure sign of privilege.

Expecting anything else from this particular racebaiting moron, like perhaps to actually act like the mayor for all people in NOLA?

That will never happen.

I know that Cantrell approves this message, but are these her words or the words of Jennifer Avegno?

Who I would love to know about, as she seems as stupid and incompetent as the rest of New Orleans city government.

Yes. But it's officially out of Mayor Cantrell's Office (the capital "O" is on purpose).
