The Hopkinton Democratic Town Committee (HDTC) has voted unanimously to make a donation to the Hopkinton Public Library enabling the purchase of a set of books on the subject of anti-racism. This donation will enable the library to update its already extensive collection whenever important new work becomes available.
We condemn in the strongest terms racism and racial profiling against our members or neighbors. Those who wish to know more about the Democratic Party’s commitment to anti-racism efforts may consult the most recent Massachusetts Democratic Party Platform at https://bit.ly/MassDemsPlatform.
— Amy Groves, chair, Hopkinton Democratic Town Committee

Hopefully your donations are used to purchase books on anti-semitism, so that the virulent hatred against Jews can begin to be addressed. That seems to be the most prominent form of racism/hatred in today’s world. Particularly among our college youth/faculty.
