Our elementary-age members created a beautiful community altar to honor our ancestors for #DiaDeLosMuertos. The altar, located at the Frank White Memorial garden, is a space to honor those who came before us, with photos, offerings, candles, letters, flowers, & fruits. #BroSis

DISGRACEFUL for @BronxDAClark to disrespect #AntonioWilliams' family, delay just to say she won't pursue charges on #NYPD cops that killed Antonio, a loving son, brother & father. Fight is not over! Antonio's family calls on @NYCMayor @NYPDShea to #FireNYPD cops responsible
"It’s unacceptable &disgraceful that DA Clark didn’t indict these officers today. Antonio’s babies are now growing up without their father, his siblings don’t have their brother & our son was stolen from us...this is not the end we will continue to fight." bit.ly/2PJ2dnC

Sign the petition now to call on @POTUS & @DHSgov Secretary Mayorkas to stop criminalizing, deporting, & tearing apart immigrant communities.
It's within their power to hold ICE and CBP accountable, and the time is now.
