WPCNR COUNTY CLARION LEDGER: Westchester County Executive George Latimer Statement on Facebook. January 7, 2023:
The County Executive’s Statement:
“A troubling report has surfaced regarding a HS girls basketball game in Yonkers on Thursday night with anti-Semitic chants and other behavior.
We are tasking our Human Rights Commission to investigate, with a response to follow. Yonkers Mayor Mike Spano has shown strong leadership on this issue.
Westchester does not tolerate hate of any type: racism, anti-Semitism, prejudice expressed toward Women, LGBTQ individuals, Muslims, Asian Americans, Hispanics, the disabled. We are stronger because of our diversity and every group must respect the integrity of every other group.”
