Massachusetts Senator and Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warrens campaign deleted a tweet announcing its Interfaith Advisory Council after intense social media mockery over the councils composition.
Senator Warren announced the Interfaith Advisory Council on Friday by tweeting a video talking about the group, and writing My fight for social, racial, and economic justice is rooted in my faith. Faith doesnt just call on us to think good thoughtsit calls on us to act. Today, Im proud to introduce my Interfaith Advisory Councilprincipled faith leaders who know our fight is a righteous struggle.
But after the Team Warren Twitter account tweeted a video list of the councils members, which included 14 Christian leaders none of them Catholic one Rabbi, and one Buddhist leader, Twitter users were quick to point out the lack of religious diversity.
Warrens advisory council does include a relatively large number of black religious leaders, a positive step for a campaign that has struggled with black voters.
