Westside neighbors who demand abundant housing to welcome more neighbors and awesome infrastructure to end our neighborhoods’ addiction to private cars.
Let's get together next week to show there's also a lot of support in the Sunset, not just opposition. Details to come soon! Let's fight hate with love.

Today we rallied in love & resilience to condemn violence and racism against Asian American communities — and to call for support for victims, long-term prevention-based solutions to end cycles of violence, and cross-racial solidarity that centers communities of color.
“Let’s be clear: affordable housing and the services and people that it brings to a neighborhood are a net benefit to the community.”
Thank you @maelig! This entire op-ed is 🔥 & clearly diagnosis the problems (social, political) & solution (organizing)

My friend @maelig wrote an excellent op-ed on why we need to stop listening to the loudest anti-housing voices on the westside and continue to organize in support of building BMR housing for our friends, our neighbors, and our fellow San Franciscans!

We welcome input on this project. But let me be clear: I do not welcome the racist, classist, exclusionary idea that essential workers & their families, Black and brown people, or families who've experienced homelessness don’t belong in the Sunset. 1/10

... They go to the meetings and write letters. But there are a lot of quieter people who want the housing. Those are the ones we need to organize.”
Don't be quiet! Get your voice heard! Let's show everyone how welcoming the Sunset can be. For #2550Irving and all future proposals

Be there - bring joy and your desire for abundant housing in the Sunset to the conversation, against the very angry and loud vocal minority of opponents.
“The Sunset has always been a beacon for working-class families, yet as the housing crisis has worsened, it has become increasingly inaccessible for families of low to moderate income, and even middle-class families,” Supervisor Gordon Mar said. https://t.co/ZH7n62kEow
Westside = best side!'s @maelig: "That is the best way to show neighbors that affordable housing can bring benefits to the community. There's always going to be a few very loud voices in the room that are going to object to having low-income people moving into the neighborhood...
