Proud member of the @dramatistsguild.bsky.social and so glad to be part of the Education Committee. I found their free resources for educators to be an invaluable tool in my theater classes at Bridgewater State University.

Congratulations to Zohran Mandami and all the grassroots members of the Democratic Socialists who helped make this happen.
In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done.
My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it.
I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.
