WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrat Zohran Mamdani wins New York City mayor’s race.

Trick-or-treating used to be a community, social affair. It wasn’t just getting candy, it was the interaction between the kids & the residents…the fun convo over costumes, the banter about the funniest, most scary, etc.

At some point ppl decided the interaction wasn’t worth their time. So they either turn off their porch light & don’t participate or they put out the candy bowl.

Sad.

Poverty breeds crime. Like, directly. If you think people losing healthcare, SNAP, housing, allat isn’t going to flip this country over you’re a fool. You will see a spike in crime. Criminology 101.

Nearly half of SNAP households are white. But white supremacists want you to think it’s single black women and illegal immigrants.

Y’all keep saying “if you don’t rely on the government, this won’t affect you.” That’s a lie. When they cut SNAP, WIC & fundings that support health centers & temp assistance programs, it hits everybody. Groceries cost increase, stores lose money, businesses will slow down, & of course us working class citizens end up helping family/friends who don't have it. It’s not fearmongering; it’s facts. When the bottom breaks, the middle gets crushed in some way, too.

never forget that 92% of black women voted for democracy. no other group across race, gender, age, income, or education showed that level of support for either candidate. black women are the very fabric of american democracy, in a nation that has failed them time and time again.

I grew up in section 8 housing filled with love. went to undergrad using Pell Grants. in grad school my mama use to mail me her food stamp card. everything that made it possible for me to get a PhD has been cut. i'm sad for the the little black kids having their future stolen.

The problem is you don’t really want to be free, you aspire to be the oppressor.

[Dr. Allison Wiltz @queenie4rmnola]

I’ll say it again because some of you need to hear it. Black immigrants are the group who are most likely to face deportation.

[chance @chanceposts]

I believe in paying it forward and the power of community, so please drop any fundraisers or mutual aid requests and I will do what I can; I’ll also be donating to the ACLU, NAACP, Palestine/Gaza relief, and LGBTQ+ support funds because hate will not win.
