BREAKING: WE HAVE A CONTRACT! Yesterday, our members voted overwhelming to ratify our first union contract. We’re so proud of our union’s solidarity and commitment, and we could not have done it without our community standing with us during our strike. 1/

@NYPDnews @NYPDPC @NYPDChiefOfDept Y’all really don’t care about our constitutional rights huh?? Handcuffing him without a proper explanation and transporting him against his will!! Witnesses saw he was compliant, non-violent, and had NO REASON to be in an ambulance. #NYPD

[Verso Books @VersoBooks]

A spectacular review of Captives, "the disastrous history of Rikers Island", and the waves of prison rebellion, organizing and escape that have defined New York's jails for more than sixty years.

[The Nation @thenation]

By following the history of the city’s jail system, including but not only its most infamous outcropping, Shanahan makes it possible to see clearly the social relations and competing political trajectories that defined the fate of postwar New York City.

Rent in New York is un-payable, so many ppl got evicted they ran out of lawyers for tenants, and there's a war on the homeless. But politicians wont pass good housing laws, and when folks went up to the capitol to protest today, 50 got arrested. This isn't a functional democracy.

When you're entering the third year of a pandemic, and it's getting bad, again

When 3 guys own more wealth than half the population

When it's 60 degrees in December and climate change is getting worse every day

It's time for radical, fundamental changes to society.

Thanks so much for stealing @MoMAFilm's beautifully restored black and white footage and making it look like total crap. Original here: https://t.co/86A1WoFTf1.

[Payphone Project @projectpayphone]

One of the last if not the very last independent payphone service provider in New York City seeks advertisers. This sucker even has dial tone.

Riley Williams participated in the insurrection & likely planned to sell a computer that she stole to Russia. Was released in 72 hours.

Kalief Browder allegedly stole a backpack. He was in jail for 3 years before he committed suicide.

Unacceptable! #TwoAmericas

THREAD: On 10/23, NYPD arrested motorcyclist for allegedly crashing bike into a metal barricade as he exited Williamsburg bridge. NYPD claimed a SGT was hurt w/ minor cut on her leg. NYPD stated the motorcyclist was "possibly driving under the influence". video by @DennisFlores

[The Legal Aid Society @LegalAidNYC]

#WATCH: More flip-flopping from @NYPDShea on bail reform. After months of faulting the new law for an alleged spike in gun violence, Shea recently recanted those lies, acknowledging that bail reform **does not** significantly contribute to gun re-arrests.
