Racism is not exclusive to any political party, social class, economic standing, or profession. It exists in politics and business, within elite circles and among working-class communities, and yes—even within our own minority groups.
As a first generation American, I have witnessed racism my entire life. I’ve seen it from every side—within the political parties I’ve been affiliated with, in the business world where I’ve built my career, and in the poverty-stricken communities I was raised in. Even as I’ve worked to rise above those environments, I’ve carried those experiences with me as a reminder of how deep this issue runs.
Racism is not a Republican problem or a Democratic problem—it’s a human problem.
Both sides of the political spectrum have histories and individuals guilty of prejudice. The difference lies in how we confront it. I’ve chosen to confront it publicly—through my journalism, my media platforms, my advocacy, and my community work.
There are individuals and organizations I will not align with, not out of hatred, but out of principle. Racism, bigotry, and even subtle bias are barriers to progress—and I refuse to lend my name or energy to systems that perpetuate them.
I do not believe in selectively destroying careers or livelihoods over actions unless we are ready to apply that same standard equally across the board. Accountability cannot be partisan—it must be universal.
Over the years, I’ve left a trail of proof—a record of my opposition to the status quo—whether within the parties I’ve been affiliated with or against those who oppose them.
That’s why, as one of the most visible conservatives in New York City, I’ve earned the respect and trust of minority communities across the boroughs. I am proud to have built a coalition where diversity is strength, not division.
This movement is not about one scandal or one party. It’s about transforming our culture—one conversation, one community, one generation at a time. My advocacy to root out racism within our ranks and beyond is not a temporary fight; it’s a lifelong mission.
As we continue to rise in influence and power, our responsibility is to lead with integrity—to remove hate from positions of authority and replace it with courage, compassion, and truth.
