Racial Justice Network Condemns CM Rainville’s Racist and Islamophobic Rhetoric
Minneapolis, MN – On Friday July 8, Council Member Michael Rainville was holding a community meeting in regards to public safety. During this meeting CM Rainville repeatedly made comments that were racist and xenophobic. Equally troubling is that the people he was gathered with responded affirmatively to his disturbing and divisive comments. In response to the public safety issues that occurred on July 4th, CM Rainville said he was “going over to a mosque in Northeast [Minneapolis] to meet with Somali elders and tell them their children can no longer have that kind of behavior”.
We join with the Minnesota chapter of the Council on American-Isalmic Relations (CAIR-Minnesota) in condemning CM Rainville’s anti-Black and Islamophobic rhetoric. He needs to be accountable for his actions, as opposed to simply making an apology that appears to be less than sincere.
“Council Member Rainville’s rhetoric is racist, Islamophobic, and anti-Black. It is also dangerous and could put specific groups in harm’s way. CM Rainville’s statement on Friday night fell far short of the expectations of a sitting council member. He needs to gain cultural competency to be an effective leader in a racially and ethnically diverse city such as Minneapolis,” said Sonja Western, member of the Racial Justice Network.
The Racial Justice Network (RJN) is a multi-racial, grassroots organization, committed to fighting for racial justice and building bridges across racial, social, and economic lines. https://racialjusticenetwork.com/
