Mayor Mamdani’s new chief equity officer disparaged liberal white women in numerous posts on an X account deleted shortly before her appointment — and just as another aide landed in hot water for her radical screeds, The Post has learned.
The city’s new equity officer, Afua Atta-Mensah, also appeared to call white people “meat” and joke about taxing them, while liberally sprinkling the phrase “comrade” throughout her posts and retweeting statements such as, “there’s NO moderate way to black liberation.”
Mamdani — in appointing Atta-Mensah to the top city position designed to promote inclusion — said, “There is no one I trust more to advance racial equity across our work in City Hall.”
Atta-Mensah’s disturbing posts were unearthed by the New York Young Republicans Club from her personal X account, which she apparently deactivated within a week of her Thursday appointment.
Her account was deleted just as Mamdani’s new tenant advocate, Cea Weaver, faced scrutiny over her own tweets calling to “seize private property” and branding home ownership “a weapon of white supremacy.”
Atta-Mensah appeared to take notice and hid her own social-media past — which included retweeting or replying to at least three separate posts complaining about liberal white women, including one where she responded to somebody who wrote “we don’t talk about white liberal racism enough.”
“Facts! It would need to be a series of loooooonnnnnnnggggg conversations” Atta-Mensah replied.
She also reposted part of a thread from a post reading,”Who’s not police but FEELS like police to you?
“white women at nonprofit organizations,” read a reply Atta-Mensah reposted in September 2024.
A third post compared white women to Amy Cooper — a white woman who was dubbed “Central Park Karen” in 2020 after she called the cops on a black birdwatcher.
“A lot of y’all are Amy Coopers to the Black women in your non-profits every day,” the tweet read, which the equity chief responded to with, “THIS IS A WHOLE WORD!!!!”
Another series of tweets included Atta-Mensah’s 2021 reply to somebody posting about how the show “Succession” made them want to “tax these people to the white meat.”
Atta-Mensah appeared to agree, replying “Tax Them To The White Meat!!!” with a hand-clapping emoji.
Mamdani’s office has told The Post that it hasn’t directed appointees to delete their social media.
Atta-Mensah previously worked on the mayor’s campaign after a career with social-justice groups.
“Afua Atta-Mensah has dedicated her career to serving the New Yorkers who are so often forgotten in the halls of power,” Mamdani said in appointing her to her new top position.
Mamdani also stood by tenant advocate Weaver after her social-media comments mired his administration in controversy within days of kicking off in January — with her past tweets including stances such as, “The Police Are Just People The State Sanctions To Murder W[ith] Immunity.”
Another one of her tweets read, “Private property including any kind of ESPECIALLY homeownership is a weapon of white supremacy.”
She also called on people to “elect more communists” to carry out her radical agenda.
City Hall did not respond to Post requests for comment about Atta-Mensah.
Critics accused the administration of trying to hide Atta-Mensah’s past stances to avoid another kerfuffle.
“Zohran’s team tried to be more careful after the Cea Weaver disaster, but we caught Atta-Mensah before she could scrub her digital footprint,” said New York Young Republicans Club President Stefano Forte.
“Anti-white racism is a feature, not a fringe problem, of Mamdani’s inner circle,” Forte said.
“The mayor said there is no one he trusts more than Atta-Mensah to push ‘racial equity,’ and make no mistake: tweets about taxing ‘white meat’ reflect the approach of the entire Mamdani administration to reshape New York.”
