As Black members of the @NYCCouncil , we stand with Tennessee Reps @Justinjpearson and @brotherjones_ . We condemn the expulsion of these young Black lawmakers and this racist assault on democracy. We stand with them and millions across the country in demanding gun reform.

As a born and bred Brooklynite & the first Black woman in Congress, Shirley Chisholm is one of my personal heroes. This #BlackHistoryMonth , I remember that I’m standing on her shoulders. #ShirleyChisholm

I echo @NYCSpeakerCoJo in calling on the Department of Education to make a swift and responsible plan to close NYC schools and after-school programming until the current public health crisis is appropriately addressed. 1/

Kobe Bryant was a legendary basketball player whose work ethic, determination, and rise to success on the court was unparalleled. His love for family knew no bounds. It is truly devastating to hear of his untimely passing along with his daughter, Gianna.

Happy Shavuot! In an ever-changing world, unshakeable faith is often the only constant in our lives. Tonight, the Jewish community will celebrate Shavuot to commemorate when the Torah was given to Moses by G-d atop Mount Sinai.
