A Democratic Party calls the fire of Notre-Dame a reaction: "an excellent example of privilege"

reTamaya Dennard, an emocratic city councilor from Cincinnati, is backtracking after declaring that the global reaction to the Notre-Dame fire in Paris was "an excellent example of privilege."

Dennard has established a stark contrast between the international outpourings of sympathy for the fire of Paris Cathedral and the fire of three churches in Louisiana in recent weeks.

"I am sorry that the beautiful cathedral of France was damaged, but it is an excellent example of privilege.White people do not have to see me if they do not want it. have no choice. Please read Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man, "she said Tuesday on Twitter.

"It is possible to remember several truths, I am also saddened by the fire of the black churches of Louisiana, I am sure they also had significance, they were barely recognized."

Twitter users immediately criticized Dennard's stance on the global response to the Notre-Dame fire.

An user wrote: "Mrs. Dennard, I do not see the comparison." Should there be more attention in the US regarding the burning of black churches? Yes, absolutely. But I do not think it's a exact comparison with Our Lady, because it's at the global level .Do not do anything not. "

Another user reminded Dennard that Notre Dame was the place where the first black priest had been ordained in the history of the Catholic Church.

"Here's something of cultural significance to you." In 1854, James Augustine Healy was ordained in Paris, France, thus becoming the first black priest of the Catholic Church. " he tweeted.

However, a new fundraising effort for Louisiana churches has taken place this week.

The Huffington Post reporter, Yashar Ali, responded to highly publicized money statements to help rebuild the French emblem. He on Tuesday urged his Twitter to raise funds on GoFundMe for the reconstruction of three historically black churches in Louisiana, after being burned by an alleged arsonist.

St. Mary Baptist Church, in the mostly African-American community of Port Barre, was the first fire to occur on March 26th. Then, exactly one week later, the Great Union Baptist Church also caught fire, just eight kilometers from St. Mary's. A third church called Mount Pleasant in Opelousas was also burned, also in the parish, which resulted in a broader investigation involving federal authorities.

Local authorities have not ruled out the possibility of arson or that fires are part of a larger plan to affect the community.
