“In the midst of the hotly contested Texas Democratic Primary and Caucus race, Adelfa Callejo, long-time Hispanic community leader speaking to KTVT-TV (Channel 11) made comments, which were offensive to various members of the African American community. The J.L. Turner Legal Association (JLTLA) issued a statement this week voicing their displeasure with her comments.

Speaking by phone on Tuesday, Steve Bolden, II, the President of JLTLA indicated the organization deliberately delayed addressing the issue during the election cycle. However, he shared, “We want to let the public know we found her comments disappointing.””*
