Arthur Schwartz's group NYPAN harbored and defended a serial predator and abuser, asked him to resign when he became a problem for them, and now refuses to apologize to the victims they ignored and belittled for years. @nycpa @NYWFP @AndrewYang @mayawiley @scottmstringer

so @melissadderosa got to be on the cover of Vogue and @jimmalatras got to be SUNY chancellor... raw deal, Missy

[Betsy4taxingbillionaires @betsy4assembly]

Here's my question, @jimmalatras --is this how you got your Chancellor job? And what's it like to fire a SUNY president for her COVID response while you were busily covering up deaths? Resign.

EXCLUSIVE: New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s top advisers successfully pushed state health officials to strip a July report of data showing that more nursing-home residents had died of Covid-19 than the administration had acknowledged.

Raise your hand if you've been threatened by Arthur Schwartz

speaking truth to power isn't trolling

[Betsy4taxingbillionaires @betsy4assembly]

NYPAN agreed to apologize, and then reneged out of fear that Carpineta might further damage their "digital assets" (?!) NYPAN has prioritized their own interests ahead of real, flesh-and-blood humans who suffered because of that group's actions.

In my world, accountability is important. Sometimes we do harm--but we are accountable. NYPAN does not believe that. Oh, Bernie also accepted Carpineta as a delegate, saying "we'll keep an eye on him." Buh? This is what we do?

I amplified their voices with the intention of getting victims justice. Instead, I retraumatized them.

[Betsy4taxingbillionaires @betsy4assembly]

NYPAN listened to me because I was, in the world of respectability politics, a candidate with an MSW (these were actual words said by a board member while tone policing a victim)

Billionaires convinced y’all certain jobs aren’t hard work, so don’t require a decent wage. And y’all ate it up. Yet in a pandemic those same workers became “essential workers” and kept our service economy from collapse.

@senti_narwhal It looks like something that would happen...here

@nhannahjones My role model

[Rhodanthe @RhodantheOnline]

This is the reality women face.
When I was 17 the Elizabeth PD told me I should be disgusted at myself for being taken advantage by my 19yo exBF who was threatening to kill me & refused to write a report.
