Op-Ed: Northwest Bronx Indivisible Committee Offended by Ben Franklin Democratic Club’s Mailer re A.D. 81

By NORTHWEST BRONX INDIVISIBLE STEERING COMMITTEE
We the undersigned members of the steering committee of Northwest Bronx Indivisible are deeply offended by the Ben Franklin Democratic Club’s 81st A.D. mailer. As community members, voters, and activists, we care about truth and decency in political discourse. The mailer violates both principles through its inflammatory accusations that the Unity (Democratic) Club candidates use antisemitic tropes and disregard public safety. We condemn the mailer. We believe it distorts truth.
