Councilman Barry Set A Meeting with Filipino Nurses
After months of racist remarks, Ward 8 Councilman and former DC Mayor Marion Barry has agreed in a meeting with the Filipino nurses after the controversial issue on the racial discrimation towards Asian Americans and nurses.
“We’re trying to tell the people and the community that we’re here because we want to serve the community, we’re not here to take their jobs but because they need nurses. That’s why we’re here,” Marissa Usman, president of the Philippine Nurses Association of Metropolitan DC (PNAMDC) told the Manila Mail.
