We're the Eastern Michigan University chapter of YDSA.

The SARA chapter at EMU is leading a protest in response to EMU's lack of urgency surrounding sexual assault on campus. On September 16th at 4pm, SARA, will lead a march from Pray Harold to Welch Hall to demand EMU take this issue seriously and to demand justice for victims.

Free skateboarding lessons are happening at a new skatepark in Detroit. Of course I had to show the kids something on @Local4News. In all seriousness - as a child, I would have killed for a new park and mentors in the skateboarding community. Glad to see it’s happening in Detroit

Apparently a gas line erupted, tilting a building and blowing out water lines in SW Detroit. Just another run of the mill #fossilfuel catastrophe in #Detroit.

KC Tenants will host an eviction defense training in the coming weeks, open to any organization led by impacted tenants. Please keep eyes peeled for details.

A faulty eviction moratorium wasn’t ever going to save us. We take care of us. #EndEvictions

[Ann Arbor Tenants Union @AATUOfficial]

Yesterday we PREVENTED the landlord association from socializing, playing kickball and networking! Our message: while tenants rights are violated, while the courts, police and landlords collude to create an eviction crisis in Washtenaw, we WILL disrupt business-as-usual! Join us

VICTORY: Yesterday the Heart Village residents organized, took over the Jackson County legislative meeting, and forced (a majority of) their demands to be met, including $10k minimum per household and rent cancellation now through February 2022.

The Detroit police are one of the most violent, corrupt, organized gangs in modern history. Almost none of their budget goes to what they call "violent crime." Almost all of it goes to brutal, everyday violence enforcing low-level stuff and crushing protest.

Gov. Whitmer is joined by Ypsilanti Mayor Lois Richardson, Washtenaw County Sheriff Jerry Clayton and community leaders at an Ypsilanti senior center to sign a bill allocating $384.7 million in state and federal funds for flood, COVID recovery and local police departments.
