Asian American Silicon Valley councilwoman branded racist after saying BLM activist's texts worried her
Fox News
Lynette Lee Eng, a city councilwoman in Los Altos, Calif., was in the middle of an official Zoom meeting on Nov. 24 when she received a text message from a 22-year-old local activist named Kenan Moos.
She said the case illustrates how cancel culture and organized shaming and intimidation can interfere with officials’ routine duties as well as keep them fearful of speaking their minds honestly and getting meaningful work done. Moos and his supporters have repeatedly returned to subsequent city council meetings to re-air their grievances. "It makes it hard to clearly state your position, because you have to constantly rethink it," she told Fox News on Friday. "You want to make sure it's stated correctly so no one takes offense, because if not, this is what's going to happen to you."More Related News
