GREEN BAY (NBC 26) — Green Bay city leaders gathered Thursday night to condemn hate and reaffirm the community's commitment to inclusion, following a racist viral video out of Ashwaubenon and divisive federal comments targeting immigrant communities.
At Green Bay City Hall, officials from across Wisconsin spoke out against discrimination affecting local residents.
"In Green Bay, we take care of each other," State Representative Amaad Rivera-Wagner said.
The unity rally came after two incidents sparked community concern. In Ashwaubenon, a Cinnabon employee was caught on camera using a racial slur, while recent federal remarks deprecated Somali immigrants.
"Green Bay and Wisconsin thrive when every resident is valued and included," said Said Hassan, Executive Director of COMSA.
