An honor to receive the endorsement of
of nearly a dozen Black clergy leaders in Crown Heights today, including Bishop Orlando Findlayter.

I’m grateful for their support, and this powerful and humbling prayer.

we choose to pay more to punish people for being poor.
“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

It costs a lot less to house people.
Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me
In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

Folks can argue about the relevancy of the “Democratic socialist” label all day. But if that’s what you’re hung up on, you’re missing the larger point.

People aren’t chasing labels. They’re chasing change. Real, structural, unapologetic change.

In 1868, the United States guaranteed equal protection of the laws to all people in its jurisdiction.

In 1947, New Jersey established anti-discrimination as the first principle of state law.

This week, new advocates offer a blueprint for reparations to achieve these goals.

“The fear to speak. In America?” CBS’ Scott Pelley asked. “If our government is—in Lincoln’s words—‘of the people, by the people and for the people’—then why are we afraid to speak?”

Happy Sunday! ☀️

Since COSTCO is my jam, I’m going to share some benefits many of us (members too) may not be aware of.

1) COSTCO Travel—offers members the ability to book destinations, hotels, and cruises through the club with serious deals that it passes along to members.

In 1862, President Abraham Lincoln issued a preliminary Emancipation Proclamation.

In 2024, President-elect Trump threatens ‘Blue’ states that are, in essence, in defiance of the First and Second Confiscation Act

The Confiscation Acts nullified the Fugitive Slave Act and the Dred Scott Decision.
In recent days, Republican politicians have taken to the airwaves, threatening blue states that fail to comply with the Trump administration’s draconian immigration policies with the withdrawal of federal funding.
