Controversial new Boston migrant shelter is unveiled: Massachusetts' Dem. Governor seized cherished recreation center in deprived, majority-black neighborhood, infuriating locals
2024-02-01
[DM]
  • The Melnea Cass Recreational Center in Roxbury has been closed to the local community and will now serve as home to 400 migrants

  • Maura Healey, the governor of Massachusetts, and the mayor of Boston, Michelle Wu, toured the site on Wednesday and said they had little choice

  • Local residents are angry about being forced from their sports center and say they do not know where they will hold their usual training sessions
    Hold ‘em in the street like you did in the old days before the politicians decided to value your vote.
