Assemblywoman Nikki Lucas is calling for greater accountability, responsibility and unity within Brooklyn’s Democratic Party following recent allegations of antisemitism involving a newly elected district leader.
“We must unequivocally condemn antisemitism, racism, Islamophobia, gender bias and all forms of hatred and discrimination. At the same time, this moment should prompt a broader conversation about the leaders we elevate and the responsibility we have to build bridges across Brooklyn’s diverse communities.”
Leadership should be rooted in community, experience and a commitment to bringing people together. Brooklyn’s diversity is our strength, and our focus must remain on serving the people and addressing the issues that matter most to our communities.
