Earlier this morning, Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito retweeted our tweet about Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr’s disparaging remarks about Port Morris and Mott Haven in which he described the areas as, “…it’s dark, it’s dormant, it’s just a very morbid place,” during his interview with Gary Axlebank on BronxTalk.

In turn, Madame Speaker Mark-Viverito tweeted: “Proud to represent such a great, diverse part of our city #MottHaven…” to Welcome2TheBronx, Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. El Barrio Tours.

TELL BRONX BOROUGH PRESIDENT RUBEN DIAZ, JR HE IS DISRESPECTFUL AND OUT OF TOUCH!
