Taxpayer-funded Minneapolis food pantry bans white people - as astonishing outburst at local who complained is revealed

The boss of a Minneapolis food pantry, funded by city taxpayers, has banned white people from taking advantage of the resource.
Mykela 'Keiko' Jackson used a Minnesota State grant to launch the Food Trap Project Bodega designed to help poor and hungry residents living close to the Sanctuary Covenant Church north of the city.
The pantry only opened up on July 27 but it has now been forced to close and relocate
A sign that on the door to the pantry reads how the food inside was specifically for 'Black and Indigenous Folx' only. After a civil rights complaint was made against the pantry by a local, Mykela accused the complainant of 'political violence.'
The resources found in here are for Black & Indigenous Folx. Please refrain from taking anything if you're not,' it stated.
Jackson used a Paths to Black Health grant which aims to reduce health disparities among African Americans while fostering a 'vibrant and thriving' community.
But a number of reports have emerged suggesting how non-black residents are being denied access to the pantry, sowing the seeds of racial discrimination in an area considered to be an ethnically diverse.
Chaplain Howard Dotson, 54, went to take a look at the pantry for himself, but claims how as a white man was refused service.
Dotson then filed a complaint with the Minneapolis Civil Rights Commission.
He claims that Jackson told him in person how the food pantry was set up to serve black and indigenous people and was told how he should go across the road to the church's free pantry should he needed it.
'There was no one there directly turning them away. They felt entitled to the resources that were not for their demographic - white privilege is real,' Jackson said accusing Dotson of 'political violence'.

That there is nasty!
Can’t decide if that thing is straight outta Compton or straight out of Mogadishu.
Probably not a great idea for a non profit that takes taxpayer funds to engage in racial profiling

Looks like she’s been filled with too much free food! And had money left over for all sorts of “make me ugly” tats and braids.
“fostering a ‘vibrant and thriving’ community.” — curious that they left out “diverse.”
