Chicago’s mayor refuses to give interviews to White reporters

Chicago’s mayor declared that she would only grant one-on-one interviews to minority journalists to protest the lack of diversity in the Windy City press corps.

Mayor Lori Lightfoot, the first black woman and openly gay person elected to run that city, confirmed the move Tuesday after members of the local press took to Twitter saying they had been denied interviews based on their skin color.

“By now, you may have heard the news that on the occasion of the two-year anniversary of my inauguration as Mayor of this great City, I will be exclusively providing one-on-one interviews with journalists of color,” Lightfoot said in a letter to local media provided The Post.

Welcome.

You may have seen debates over whether or not to capitalize “White” in reference to White people. This site will capitalize White, along with Black, Asian, and so on; with an exception made when quoting or reposting another’s writing.

This site exists in order to document anti-White media, policies, and people across the planet.

This is not a White Supremacist site; the phrase “White Supremacist” itself is a common slur used against White people, regardless of what they believe. The official stance of this site is that no ethnic group is superior to any other, and that all people should be treated with respect.
