Tonight I joined the Staten Island Inter-Religous Leadership and neighbors for a vigil commemorating the mass shooting that occurred in Monterey Park, California. The gunman killed eleven people and injured nine others. We mourn them and Tyre Nicholas as our hearts break again.
You don’t have to watch the video of #TyreNichols being beaten by police.
You don’t have to subject yourself to that trauma.
It should not require another video of a Black human being dehumanized for anyone to understand that police brutality is an urgent, devastating issue.
Tyre Nichols should be alive. Charges alone aren’t justice. Change is.
At least 1,176 people were killed by law enforcement last year - a record. Billions in trainings, body cams, and reforms haven’t stopped it. In fact, it’s gotten worse. We must grow out of this cycle together
The Beacon Program at PS 18 is hosting another Chat and Chew with the fathers on 1/27. Dads will be able to have access to resources and the school social worker while being able to vent and talk in a safe place.

I have no words. My sister sent me this today. She lives in @NYCHA Grant Houses in Harlem. They’re shutting off their gas until JULY 31!!! How is this legal?
