City Council President Nury Martinez is resigning effective immediately after being recorded making racist remarks toward a fellow council member and his black child, causing widespread outrage and demands for her nixing.The announcement, made in an email from the liberal councilwoman's office Monday afternoon, comes after the release of a recorded October 2021 conversation between Martinez, Councilman Kevin de León, and other city officials.The pair were forced to apologize Sunday for the disparaging remarks on colleague Mike Bonin, including racist slurs by Martinez directed at Bonin's young son.
