Alex Askew, a Democratic member of the Virginia House of Delegates, accused his Republican challenger of using racist imagery in campaign attacks that depict him burning and hanging by ropes.
"Karen -- last month, you sent an attack mailer that displayed a darkened, burning photo of my face. Now, your party is depicting me as bound & hanging by rope. YET AGAIN: These images rely on some of the laziest, most blatantly racist tropes about Black people in history," Askew tweeted Saturday. He shared an image of one mailer that shows him tightly bound and hanging
"My opponent's attack mailer displayed a darkened, burning photo of my face. I'm a black man. Depicting any black person as burning or hanging propagates some of the most dangerous, racist tropes in history. This dog whistle attack has no place in our politics," he wrote.
