Your pal @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social at the West Indian Day Parade in Brooklyn. Genuinely hard to take a bad picture of this dude.

Twenty Years After the Storm What home meant before, and after, Hurricane Katrina

20 years ago this month, Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans. For so many New Orleanians, our lives are demarcated by this moment. If someone ask you about an event or memory from the past, we say β€œwas it before or after the storm?” On this twentieth anniversary, I wrote about going back home.

There are already two parties for billionaires. We don’t need a third.

If you want a party for working people, join the Working Families Party: wfpus.org/JoinUs

I’m a union member and requesting you to call the affiliate unions of the AFL-CIO into some form of organized action. Jobs are being lost to an autocrat and organized labor must take action. We are ready to do so but we must be big and organized. Now is the time!!
