The increasingly common formation of tenant associations spanning the holdings of a common landlord is one of the most exciting developments in the tenants movement. Also happening in South Central @SAJE_ShiftPower with SoLa and San Fransisco @housingrightsSF with Veritas
About a year ago I did my first watercolor of a building. Really appreciative of the kind words and encouragement I’ve received on this site and elsewhere. You can see what I’ve painted since at my Instagram: https://t.co/xSqbwZeNKk

Happy for @lynnxe and glad to see this story about a different side of Denver. And yes, "Developers can still make money selling to tenants rather than kicking them out and fixing and flipping"
There are a ton of doom-and-gloom housing stories out of Denver and plenty of developers who have put people on the streets in the name of personal financial gain. In this case, a developer helped keep a longtime Denver artist in Denver. https://t.co/zZ6gGZ8Zqq
We are announcing 3 huge victories for our union today. First up, CU announced today a 3% raise for faculty and university staff across the entire CU system. We are especially proud to see these raises for campus workers at UCCS, CU Denver, and CU Anschutz.
My piece for @NextCityOrg.

Really looking forward to reading this new book by Denver legend Phil Goodstein. Also, so many great quotes about lack of historical memory in this piece:

Arielle Milkman @amilkman discusses how to increase local decision-making and decrease planning fatigue for @NextCityOrg. "Research shows that participatory planning addresses the needs of older, whiter and wealthier residents."

I just found out that my corner store used to be the headquarters for the Black Panthers in Colorado. Think this photo might have been taken after a 1968 police raid that damaged the building.
My experience with the Iowa app as a precinct captain:
the caucus chair asked me to help him download and use it but the written instructions he had for the app never mentioned it by name so we couldn’t find it in the app store :)
Listened to the first two episodes of @rangeandslope's immersive stories about CO back to back and can't wait for more from this new collective https://t.co/pxaMrvKsIT
