Walking down Christopher street as a young queer kid, I’d always see the Guardian Angels. I quickly learned that they were present to harass and get black & brown queer & trans kids out of the piers. They’ve always targeted the queer community. Always!

When we say "Defund the Police; Fund the People," we are inviting our neighbors to share what a safe, inclusive and equitable city would mean for them.

While we’re at it … let’s talk about all the men who say “we need more women in leadership” but then run for office and don’t instead support a woman.
And entirely leave non-binary candidates out of the conversation. 🤔

This isn’t how government works. One person doesn’t pass bills or change policies. These folks are fighting their own allies. But it happens. At some point folks start turning on the wrong ones.

This decision is infuriating and it moves us back in the work that many have done for justice. Survivors have led us along the way time and time again. The stories of POC survivors are often not believed — especially by white men, including those who are gay. (1/2)

We need to support people experiencing homelessness.
They need homes.
They need food.
They need healthcare.
They need jobs.
They need to be treated with respect.
They need what everyone needs.
They are us.

Time & time again we get to see how gross this publication is. Shaming hard working New Yorkers.
Couple of things:

2. Sex work is work
3. Sexism is alive and real
We’ve seen NYP shame a council candidate and now an essential worker.

Yang’s comment has made it clear, it’s “us vs. them”. It erases the fact that many of us have fam & friends who have mental illness or are them.
