BIG update + good news following email ending volunteers to Jail & Prison Services: NYPL affirms JPS will continue with *same* number of volunteers, just from central NYPL, not branches.

Per source, internal email which provoked the uproar among librarians should have never gone out.

NYPL spox Melissa Grace: “NYPL is committed to its Jail & Prison Services Department, which remains fully staffed and is continuing to offer our patrons who are incarcerated the high level of library services they deserve.”

The city wasn’t forthcoming about fire safety on Rikers Island during the final months of the Adams admin. Even as the jails saw 44 fires in 42 days.

🚨Border Patrol arrested two firefighters who were actively fighting a wildfire at the time.

When the other members of the crew asked for a chance to say goodbye, a Border Patrol agent told the crew member “you need to get the f*ck out of here. I’m going to make you leave.”

"When the representative of the Israel Police was asked ... why residents of the village who defended themselves were under arrest while the person who shot at them was going to be released, the officer replied: 'These are two different populations.'"

How @nytimes describes Israel shooting and killing hundreds of starved Palestinian civilians waiting for food.

“Crude form of crowd control”

This is a really disturbing. A person detained in the Everglades was handcuffed and left outdoors in the sun as punishment for attempting to go on a hunger strike. As mosquitoes swarmed him, he pleaded with guards to bring him inside and was kept outside for nearly three hours.

Do I know anyone who is a journalist on the NYPD’s press push email list that I can ask for a quick favor?

On Friday night, we walked the length of Manhattan, from Inwood Hill to Battery Park.

New Yorkers deserve a Mayor they can see, hear, even yell at. The city is in the streets.

Before his death, Pope Francis donated the popemobile to be turned into a mobile clinic to help Palestinian children in Gaza.

Israel won’t even let that enter Gaza.
