LINDENHURST, N.Y. (WABC) -- An African-American family on Long Island got a nasty letter claiming that the Suffolk County Village of Lindenhurst is overwhelmingly white and "you don't belong here."
"Lindenhurst is 84 percent white population you don't belong here," the letter reads.
The racist words were anonymously penned to an African-American family in Lindenhurst, and they have quickly drawn outrage.
"The anger was there, the hurt was there, and then, of course, fear," said Darcell Copes, the letter's recipient.
It shattered the sense of peace Copes and her children thought they found in this Long Island community.
"Please leave Lindenhurst as soon as you can it will be better for all of us. Find the town where there are more people like you," the letter went on.
