This #WomensHistoryMonth we have even more to celebrate after electing the @NYCCouncil's first women majority.
#TeamCarlina hustled hard over the last year for women candidates citywide—from petitioning to door knocking to GOTV—and I'm so grateful we did. How ya like us now 💪🏽
Today we celebrate the start of black history month, a day to honor black legacy, culture, and history!
Black history has come a long way but there is still much work to be done! STARS CGI strives to continue to educate, inspire, and uplift the future generations of leaders #BHM
Today, @GGENYC's @QuadiraC is testifying before the @NYCCouncil on the need to defund youth policing in all its forms, including what was just praised in NYPD testimony: the $35 million+ in public dollars spent on 300 youth cops.

Much has been happening behind the scenes to prepare for the next cohort of STARS CGI and we are so excited to get started in the next coming months ✨ As we gather our ideas, RT and let us know what kinds of events/programs YOU’d like to see in the next year!
