Justice for Daunte Wright and his family.

The link in our bio leads to the GoFundMe that is being used to cover his funeral expenses.

His child’s mother needs support too- her CashApp handle is: $Hubby98

"A post-COVID housing crisis isn’t imminent, it’s here. One year into the pandemic, still-rampant unemployment and debt mean that families who have barely managed to scrape by are reaching a breaking point." https://t.co/FGBPG3oZD2 #KeepStPaulHome #RentersBelongSTP

In May 2020 the amazing organizers and community members with @IX_Unidxs fought hard to show slumlords, and the country, that #RentersBelong.

This story is inspiring and serves as a great reminder of the power renters hold! https://t.co/SGu8hfYg1Z

Follow this thread and read up on how rent stabilization will benefit members of our communities!

[Don’t Boo…Revolt! @BreeNewsome]

Stop. Giving. Police. More. Money. We need housing, healthcare, fully funded education & living wages. That’s what keeps our communities safe.

Thanks to all those that called and emailed. This doesn't change our demands and the need to interrogate why this even happened. We will continue to fight the power and influence of police in our beloved city.

Every person deserves a safe place to call home. Follow the work of @HENStp, the group that organized for strong tenant protections in Saint Paul last year, and see how they're building more justice for renters in our city this year.

Hi friends!

We are HENS (Housing Equity Now St. Paul), a coalition of community-based organizations rooted specifically in low-wealth and BIPOC communities.

[Karen J Larson (구진선) @onefunnygook]

‼️ More than half of Saint Paul residents are renters and too many are being pushed out of our community because corporate and predatory landlords are spiking rents to make more money. It’s time for rent stabilization to #KeepStPaulHome for ALL our neighbors. #RentersBelongSTP
