Malcolm X: "You don't get freedom peacefully. Freedom is never safeguarded peacefully. Anyone who is depriving you of freedom isn't deserving of a peaceful approach by the ones who are being deprived of their freedom."

Taking children as hostages, if confirmed, is barbarism, plain and simple, and does nothing to advance the cause of peace, resistance, or ending the occupation.
The response to the ongoing suffering and killing of Palestinian children is not to make Israeli children suffer.

Rockland County's Hirschhorn Estates' years of neglect of its Rochester portfolio has netted it 470 code violations. The homes are plagued with mold, rats, squatters, and collapsing roofs. Now, the city wants Hirschhorn to pay—to the tune of $131 million. wxxinews.org/local-news/2023…

We were explicitly told that building a wall and decimating ecosystems would stop with the orange guy.

Why we disagree with the anti panhandling resolution. It is reactionary and will not get anyone closer to being housed.
We reject politicians bringing forth legislation like this and demand that they ONLY work on laws aimed at fighting the root cause.

The truth is that the LMSW exam does not make anyone a better social worker. BUT it has blocked many great and diverse social workers from entering the workforce at a really critical time. We're working to change that.
Washington, D.C. is considering eliminating #ASWB exam for some types of #SocialWork due to racial and age bias. In this @nbcwashington report, #NASW said test is flawed & it supports legislation offering alternative pathways to licensing: tinyurl.com/5xkdfvr3

Now: Judge clears the courtroom but keeps Trump and the attorneys in the room. Press protest sealing the courtroom on the way out. Court officers order us out.
Once again, we don’t know what’s going on in the courtroom.

2. How dare any elected official in New York, but especially one who's obstructed our efforts to house more people & prevent the evictions that drive homelessness, blame people on the street for "ending up" there. Housing insecurity isn't their fault. It is your policy failure.

Oct 2, the ACC will resume the vote on the anti-panhandling resolution.
Oct 3, ACC will vote to expand police enforcement of loitering laws.
Join our teach-in today at 5:30PM and public comment at 7PM today at City Hall.
This is a blatant attempt to remove poverty from sight.

I respect Robert Saleh giving the refs the business to close this one out

Don’t be disingenuous or cause problems for problems sake. But your reputation matters. And if you have a reputation for putting up a fight, prosecutors and the court are more likely to give you what you want.

“I favor ending birthright citizenship,” said man born in the U.S. to two noncitizens, making him a birthright citizen.

it's really disturbing that the same Common Council that passed the first Good Cause protections in NYS is now seeking to pass an anti-panhandling resolution and an anti-loitering ordinance, and that we know this is just the beginning of their crusade against victims of poverty

If other news organizations are interested in adding to this story, maybe ask some Troy public officials and/or mayoral candidates for responses ... as we have been doing for months.
