Mamdani in the Hot Seat over "Black" Box
Fox News08-07-2025
The NYC Democratic Socialist mayoral front runner is in hot water for checking a very interesting box…
I'm Tomi Lahren, more next.
Senator Elizabeth Warren walked so Zohran Mamdani could run.
He's in the hot seat for checking both 'Asian' and 'Black or African American' on his 2009 application to Columbia University.
Mamdani claims he checked those boxes because being from Uganda with Indian heritage, there wasn't another box he felt matched his racial identity.
He insists he didn't check those boxes to gain an advantage in the admissions process, though many on social media still find it a little suspicious…
More importantly, this harkens back to one of the reasons we must eliminate DEI from the college and job application process. It should be about merit, not quotas.
Furthermore, it's the Left that is OBSESSED with race and also cultural appropriation, so it stands to reason some aren't happy he conveniently identified as Black, though he clearly is not.
Look, I don't really care what box he checked on a college application. I am far more concerned that he's a radical with communist ideas.
It's all such a CLOWN SHOW!
