GREAT news that @NYCMayor & @DOEChancellor are expanding #CommunitySchools, the strategy young people need now! AND they must restore the cuts to Community Schools that are still in place-You can’t expand w/out restoring the cuts! #SAVECommunitySchools
NYC announces expansion of Community Schools! Research shows that students in #communityschools attend school more often, feel safer & are more likely to graduate on time. This is what we need now! Thank you @NYCMayor @DOEChancellor @NYCFirstLady for your leadership.

Seven shots in the back. Seven shots. Seven. In the back. For breaking up a fight. I'm undone.
Shot in front of his children. I'm undone.
As #JacobBlake fights for his life, his kids are fighting off their trauma. I'm undone.

Hi, hello. Are you angry that City Council failed #DefundNYPD? Me too. But! I have good news. 35 out of 51 Members are term limited at end of next year. Let me introduce you to some progressives of color running for their seats, who could really use your support (thread):

"Counselors Not Cops" means hire counselors instead of cops. It does not mean transfer school safety agents from NYPD payroll to DOE payroll. What is that even?

These demands echo the findings just published in #HomelessCantStayHome report.
Hot off the virtual "presses"!

Here’s two things you can do right now:
1. Call your City Council member and ask them to cut the NYPD budget.
2. Send money to get folks out of jail.

Wow. @Jasgripper just pointed out that NYPD presence in @NYCSchools is larger than the ENTIRE Boston police force. A powerful reminder that educational justice IS racial justice. Thank you @AOC, @AQE_NY and @MaketheRoadNY for your advocacy!! #DivestfromNYPD #Counselorsnotcops
Plenty of people can’t be in the streets: disability, family care, etc.
But many are asking what we can do in this moment. We can ORGANIZE.
Join me right now@7 for a parent workshop on how to oppose a school-to-prison budget w/ @AQE_NY & @MaketheRoadNY:
