Mamdani tries to oust black female head of NYC’s racial equity commission after she publicly criticized admin

Mayor Zohran Mamdani tried to replace the black female head of the city’s Commission on Racial Equity after she publicly criticized him for removing any mention of DEI from its “racial equity plan” released earlier this year. Hizzoner sent a letter to the City Council this week asking lawmakers to sign off on replacing Linda Tigani with Christopher Alexander, the executive director of New York’s NAACP. The request, which was first reported by The New York Times, was quickly met with fierce backlash from the council and others in the black community who argued that removing Tigani appeared retaliatory and came during a critical time for the independent commission. Chair and Executive Director of the NYC Commission on Racial Equity Linda Tigani criticized the admin during a rally for the Racial Equity Plan in April. Derek French/Zuma / SplashNews.com “He wants to put it under his thumb, because she criticized him,” one insider said. “You can’t retaliate against someone because they are criticizing their administration.” “The one commission that is supposed to deal with issues in the black community, and he tries to fire her,” they continued. ‘60 Minutes’ is still gaslighting, what does France believe in and other commentary

Vote for prosperity & security: The Post’s endorsements for NY’s House races

New York state’s Republican House incumbents deserve to retain their seats, and The Post strongly endorses their re-election. We have already made the case for Rep. Mike Lawler in the swinging 17th Congressional District, where he faces a tight race against the carpetbagging Cait Conley, but the rest of the delegation merits plaudits, too. Nicole Maliotakis , New York City’s highest ranked elected Republican, repping Staten Island and Bay Ridge, has solidified her hold over the once-purple 11th CD through steady advocacy for her constituents on immigration enforcement and opposition to the rising socialist tide across the city.
