Four New York officials are fighting against city funding for a performing-arts group founded by a supporter of Mayor Michael Bloomberg. Lenora Fulani has applied for a $12.75 million tax-exempt bond from the city’s Industrial Development Agency for her group, the All Stars Project, according to The New York Times. The four officials say they are concerned about anti-Semetic comments Fulani made in the past and the actions of her All Stars partner, a therapist who last year admitted that he had had intimate relationships with patients.
