…apparently this is something that has been going for a decade now and is specifically for those ‘of colour’ elected and who represent colour minorities within the community… by definition, there would only be those 6 people I think there are who are part of a very small group who were ‘elected with colour’ and work for those minorities….so a gathering to discuss or celebrate something very specific…those who weren’t or aren’t part of that community work, don’t seem to have any issue that this seems to be a valued and essential work within a community…and there is no mention of that work, only that there is some kind of social gathering of all who are an active part ….it just feels as though it’s a media driven outrage thing…anyway, there’s not for me much else to say…everyone seems fine that this is something that has been ‘a thing’ for a decade and a benefit to the community for those who need it, so far as I know….
