My son and I made a butter cookie baking video back in a simpler world called April. We’ve picked up a few skills since then (socially distant BLM protesting being a key new line on our CVs) but we still love this recipe from @JennChingNSF vimeo.com/430442195/98630bb7… @nyulaw

NYC has far more police employees per 10K residents (red line) than other major cities, more than 2x the per capita staffing than sprawling cities like Phoenix & Dallas, but also far more than dense cities like San Francisco & Baltimore - ow.ly/lC9450zZXLh #DefundNYPD

Yesterday in Brooklyn NYPD pepper-sprayed en masse & body slammed those protesting murder of #GeorgeFloyd. Unacceptable violence enabled by state law 50-a. @NYGovCuomo said he’s willing to sign, time for Albany legislature to #Repeal50A. Full statement: changethenypd.org/releases/c…

We urge @NYCMayor to announce a moratorium on NYPD enforcement on street vendors till this crisis is over. Street vendors experience sales loss up to 80% since last week, nobody can afford to pay fines under these circumstances. #DecriminalizeVending #VendorsRSmallBiz
Proud and grateful for my colleagues @cmenchaca and @ydanis for putting this ask on the table! We need to #DeliverJustice for delivery workers who are on the move to deliver necessities, feed NYC, and keep businesses running. They are our lifeline.

What will happen if undocumented New Yorkers are allowed to obtain driver's licenses? We don't have to wonder. Let's just look at states that have already done it. NM had a 24% drop in uninsured drivers. CT saw a 9% drop in hit-and-runs. CA drivers saved $3.5 million.

Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble. #goodtrouble

Nothing but love ❤️ for all of the people who’ve stood by Constance Malcolm, the mother of #RamarleyGraham, in her 6 yrs struggle for justice at a party she’s hosting to thank NYC’s police accountability community and remember Ramarley’s life.✊🏾😘

We stand with @CEJNYC as they hold the City Council accountable for implementing the anti-bias teacher trainings that they promised. Funding was already allocated. Now let's invest in our children. #NYCStudents deserve culturally competent teachers. #ParentPower
