David Dinkins was New York City’s first-ever Mayor of black origin. This famous personality died at the age of 93.

NYPD confirmed David’s death on Monday, just a month after his wife Joyce’s death. Joyce was 89 years old. Police Commissioner Dermot Shea wrote on Twitter on Tuesday, “Today we mark the passing of former Mayor David Dinkins. An enormous loss to our, city we laud him for a life of service dedicated to the people of this ‘beautiful mosaic’ — he built bridges & strengthened partnerships in every corner of NYC”. He also added, “Thank you, Mr. Mayor. Rest In Peace”.

Mayor Dinkins, Rest In Peace

David Dinkins taught as a professor in the institution’s School of International Public Affairs at Columbia University. After returning home, his health condition started to deteriorate. However, the staff at Columbia University’s School of International Public Affairs did not immediately respond to the above statement.

After the death of the Mayor, Governor Andrew Cuomo wrote on Twitter that NY lost a remarkable civic leader with the passing of Mayor Dinkins. He cherished our “gorgeous mosaic” and was the first black mayor of NYC. Moreover, he served the city & state over a career spanning decades with the hope of unity and deep kindness.” He also added, “My friend, you will be missed.”

In 1989, Dinkins, members of The U.S. House of Representatives, beat incumbent mayor Ed Koch in the Democratic primary for the position of the mayor. Finally, he won against then-challenger Rudy Giuliani by a margin of 47,000 votes. This is the slimmest margin in election history for the New York office.

Challenges In Life

Although in 1993, he later lost his re-election to Giuliani. However, Dinkins faced several challenges during his tenure. The problems were widespread homelessness, an unchecked AIDS epidemic with a growing number of deaths, and rising unemployment. Moreover, the detractors viewed his mild behavior as very muted reactions. However, he was praised by the public for his demeanor.

During daily coronavirus briefing on Tuesday, current New York City mayor Bill de Blasio spoke of Dinkins as, “He was a guiding hand in our lives in so many ways” . David Dinkins believed that everybody can be better. Moreover, he thought that we could overcome our divisions. He showed us the true path of being a gentleman. No matter what he was going through, Dinkins always taught how to be kind.
