My grandfather met Rosa Parks in Baltimore.

He was angry that to the day she still needed security because of white people that want to cause her harm.

Rosa's is a reminder that the fight is not over.

If you would like a copy of this literature- I have a spare I can send.

Video shows Department of Justice official urging Jan. 6 rioters to 'kill' cops The Department of Justice hired a former Jan. 6 defendant who was caught on tape urging rioters to "kill" police. The department calls him a "valued member" of the administration.

NEW: Police bodycam footage introduced at the trial of Jared Wise showed him berating police officers on Jan. 6, 2021, and yelling "kill 'em" as rioters attacked law enforcement. He’s now working as a senior adviser for the Department of Justice.

America is an amalgamation of cultures. Any reference to "Defend your culture" in terms of public policy is outright nazi speak.

American culture is all culture, and the right to express it.

11 more NYC libraries will soon open on Sundays A $2 million City Council deal will expand seven-day service to more than 30 branches citywide.

Eleven more libraries will reopen on Sundays, thanks to the leadership of the City Council. They never should've been closed in the first place.

As Mayor, I'll end this absurd budget dance that keeps our beloved libraries in limbo year after year.

Berman: Was the President right about the polling?

Enten: No. If we are comparing him to other presidents at this point in their presidencies, he is the second lowest on record compared only to himself.

The NW 18th Project is COMPLETE!

This project was made possible by NHAA & Community Development funding. The project involves approximately 5,000 sq ft of new or rehabilitated sidewalks, driveways, curbs, and gutters.

This is the biggest infrastructure update in the Heights in the last 5 years!

Ghislaine Maxwellβ€”convicted child sex trafficker and Epstein’s enabler-in-chiefβ€”is being quietly moved to a cushier, lower-security prison in Texas. No explanation. No accountability. This isn’t justice. It’s privilege wrapped in bureaucracy, and it reeks of special treatment for the elite.

The North Heights Advisory Association (NHAA) has been working towards sidewalk infrastructure in the heights since 2019. As the Neighborhood Planner, I've worked hard to bring some of that dream to life.
