Democratic Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez backed an effort by Yemeni American shop owners in New York City to boycott the New York Post.
Two years ago, Bodega owners across NYC (& cheered by neighbors)shut their shops citywide to protest Trump’s #MuslimBan.
Today, that same community is banding together to reject sales of the NY Post at bodegas citywide.
The New York representative retweeted another post declaring “a boycott of the racist NY Post!”
The apparent boycott is in response to a recent cover from the newspaper echoing a political attack on Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar.
“Here’s your something,” the New York Post blared, beneath a photograph of the flaming Twin Towers.
