Michelle Wu, an Asian American, is the first woman and first person of color elected to lead the city. While many are hailing it as a turning point, others see it as more of a disappointment that the three Black candidates couldn't even come close.

Oh my, Ayanna Pressley endorsed Wu. What could she be thinking. Hmmm. 🤔 Doesn’t make sense to pit different groups against each other.

Okay. Really Twitter please suspend from your platform immediately.

Asians are people of color now 😂😂😂

Can we not

Tell us without telling us you don't think she's colored enough.

This headline just made my head explode. Maybe follow the University of Maryland’s system of categorizing people as either “People of color minus Asians” and “white or Asian”

NPR racist today, tomorrow, and forever. 🖕🖕

A sick story of cultural violence and media stupidity. — first, a person of what color? — second, in light of achievements in science, math and industry, wasn’t that enough to celebrate? — third, how was the mention of black candidates relevant? This was a premeditated assault.

wtf is wrong with you?

NPR is trash. If William gross ran he would have won in a landslide….but everything is about race.

StopAsianHate StopAsianHateCrimes

This is pure racism towards Asian American!

Thankfully, most people aren't racists and aren't picking candidates based on race. Get it together nprpolitics extra

Jesus maybe she was the best person for the job. Does that matter anymore?

StopAsianHate Wu was the best candidate. We don't vote around skin tone thanks.

Hope they are a good mayor, regardless of their physical appearance

This is shockingly bad journalism.

More race-baiting in America. racebaiting

Wow that was great sex, but you know what you could do better at…

Smh NPR is terrible

Oh great, the news is trying to turn the historic story of the first Asian American woman as mayor of Boston into a story about how black people are disappointed. Media is divisive and loves using race for conflict to drive readers, listeners and viewers.

What color are Asians? Say it, I dare you

Defund NPR

Every day this account tweets something more and more racist. Jesus Christ get a grip

Why are 'others' disappointed?

Do better NPR. StopAsianHate StopAsianHateCrimes

How wildly inflammatory, loaded, and reductionist can one headline be This is a complete misrepresentation of how Boston residents - in tune with this race and candidates’ platforms - are feeling. Take a look at the coalition behind Mayor Wu to see how off base this is

Hmmm

Weird framing here NPR

Stop

Such a racist way to evaluate elections

So why is NPR acting all debbie-downer on this? Was there some injustice done

Always complaining about something - and now you complain that an American of Asian descent got elected. Stop complaining and up ur game

This is a pretty awful piece and it really puts down the effort of the elected official.

MorningEdition I'm really disappointed with this story. You can't take the time to celebrate Boston having it's first Asian-American mayor and AAPI struggles in the city but instead focus on the negative of why not xyz minority.

We are never going to progrss in this country. Like ever. 'Why wasn't she blacckkkkkk screeeeeeeeee'

Your tweet is a great demonstration of how intersectionality rots the brain.

The media can be weird…sometimes…

Some racism is acceptable, I see.

Miss the good old sane days on non PC woke headlines/rhetoric- ' Michelle Wu was elected mayor of Boston'

What they're trying to do is pit Asians against blacks don't fall for it. They've successfully done this over time. There's space for Black, Asian and Spanish candidates.

NPR, be better.

The insane racism on display here. The ideology that results in this headline is not liberal nor enlightened.

Oh please.

Points taken, but it still speaks well, considering the Asian attacks since covid began.

My god! This is literally why Asians are getting harassed! Not by whites but by Blacks! The media is fucking and stirring minority war.

Leave it to NPR to put a negative spin on just about anything.

When you show me who you are, I believe you the 1st time. See ya, NPR ✌

Latino voices in CLE that imbued people here to be mindful that in future Mayoral elections, like the one that we just saw Cleveland Mayor-elect Justin Bibb be elected and celebrated for, that its culture will be on the forefront. To lead in Liberty's something many want to do.

Seriously?

Well that's the thing about identity politics, it assumes issues don't matter.

What would NPR sound like if it shared Dr.King’s belief that people should be judged by their character and not on their skin color? Why are so many superficial NPR reporters literally unable to go beneath the surface of people’s skin? What’s the definition of racism, again?
