Mamdani addressed the criticism of his wife’s disappearance in his May post, which included a series of photos showing their marriage at the New York City Clerk’s office.

“If you look at Twitter today, or any day for that matter, you know how brutal politics can be,” he wrote.

“I usually brush up, even if it’s death threats or calls for me to be exiled. But it’s different when it’s someone you love, but not my family.”

Duwaji has chosen to stay out of the spotlight — even as her husband’s profile sheds light — but is said to be a driving force behind the scenes, according to CNN.

“With so many people being destroyed and silenced by fear, all I can do is use my voice to speak about the US and Palestine and Syria as much as I can,” he added.

“The duty of an artist as far as I’m concerned is to reflect the times,” he said, quoting musician Nina Simone.

“I believe that everyone has a responsibility to speak out against injustice, and art has such an ability to spread it,” he continued.

“I don’t think everyone should make political work, but art is always political in how it’s made, pointed out. Even making art seems like a reaction to the world.”
