Members of the town's diversity committee Monday talked about the emotional toll from an email that threatened violence against the committee and others speaking out about making the town more welcoming to diverse populations.
A May 23 email that sparked a police investigation and drew condemnation from two town committees threatened public servants with a "knife across your throat."
The Select Board and the Diversity, Inclusion and Racial Equity Committee issued a joint statement Wednesday condemning an email directed at the latter panel and calling for more respect in public discourse.
